Founded in 2013, The Independent Creators Expo celebrates independent comics, music, film and small press in all forms. Deciding to expand, ICE partnered with Frankly Zoe Productions to produce the ICE Film Festival. In our first year we screened 5 features and 42 shorts out of over 200 submissions from 32 states and 16 different countries. This year we are looking forward to even more submissions from around the world.

Our panel of judges, all with extensive backgrounds in the independent film industry, will pick the best of the best from all of the submissions. And on Saturday night when the screenings wrap, awards will be presented for Best Feature, Best Short, Audience Choice, and Best of Fest.

The ICE Film Fest has no completion dates or world premiere regulations. However, if a filmmaker has a distribution deal, the festival must have permission (in writing) to screen the film free of charge from the distributor. It is solely the filmmaker's responsibility to provide this written permission and the filmmaker assumes any and all liability.

The ICE Film Festival is not a genre specific film festival. However, it is the sole discretion of the judging panel to reject a film based on content that might not be appropriate for general audiences. Foreign language films must be subtitled or dubbed into English.
