The American Motion Pictures Festival (AMPF) is a celebration of identity, movement, and memory, organized by a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization — showcasing films that reflect the experience through the eyes of diverse creators. The festival provides a platform for voices that explore heritage, belonging, transformation, and the intersections of cultures.

Held Monthly and Annually in Greater Atlanta, the festival features a curated selection of narrative features, documentaries, shorts, and experimental films from across the United States and around the world.

Why is this the best and most effective film festival?
First and foremost, it is run by a non-profit organization. All your fees is spend to promoting your film.

Georgia is ranked #1 in film production, with $2.6 billion spent in FY 2024, $11 billion over the past 3 years, and 273 productions spanning features, episodics, commercials, and music videos.

Major studio complexes such as Trilith Studios (400-acre site with 32 stages) and Tyler Perry Studios (12 iconic soundstages) anchor local infrastructure.

American Motion Pictures Festival offers filmmakers a launchpad in the fast-growing place where multicultural narratives thrive amid world-class production capabilities.
