If you love spending time with your pets and making films this is the right film festival for you.

Our unique annual collection of shorts about animals will celebrate filmmakers who have,pets, work in pet industry, support causes, or simply love animals.

In addition to our live festival, FRFF has recently acquired a Roku channel dedicated entirely to films about animals. Top 200 shorts will be featured on our channel throughout the year in different programming slots. We hope to promote veterans and also open the door for pet owners/ animal lovers who want to try their hand at something more professional.

Fur Reel Film Festival will launch with a screening (top 30 films) at Laemmle Noho 7 in North Hollywood, in association with The Valley Film Festival.

Expect a one day event with animal themed screenings, panels from industry professionals and charities, a reception with awards and prizes.

We advise everyone to get their submissions in early to give us / yourselves as much time as possible. We are looking for creativity in their story telling. If you are going to use your cell hone please shoot in 4k.
