Hollywood Weekly Magazine Film Festival (0)

Festival start: 01 November 2015      Festival end: 01 November 2015

With the smash success of our inaugural event held in 2014 at the historic Charles Aidikoff screening room in Beverly Hills, our upcoming Hollywood Weekly Magazine Film Festival promises to set new records.

We are now officially accepting new submissions. We are open to all types of projects including animation, horror, dramas, comedies - both shorts and features.

However, due to the recent closure of the Charles Aidikoff screening room, which showcased some of Hollywood's icons film screenings for over 75 years, this year our event will be at a new location. Recently, we accepted an invitation to host Hollywood Weekly Magazine's Film Festival at the world renown Simon Wiesenthal Museum of Tolerance.

A Brief History of the Simon Wiesenthal Museum of Tolerance

The museum features a 300 seat, state-of-the art screening room which lies in the center of the artistically beautiful facility. Also serving as an educational and must see distination for students, tourist and local residents, the museum receives 350,000 visitors annually and is named after Simon Wiesenthal a Holocaust survivor.

At the end of World War II, thousands of Nazis who participated in the systematic murder of some 6,000,000 Jews and millions of Gypsies, Poles and other "inferior" people slipped through the Allied net and escaped to countries around the globe, where many still live in freedom. Simon Wiesenthal, a survivor of the Nazi death camps, dedicated his life to documenting the crimes of the Holocaust and to hunting down the perpetrators still at large."When history looks back," Wiesenthal explained, "I want people to know the Nazis weren't able to kills millions of people and get away with it." His work stands as a reminder and a warning for future generations.

This year, the Hollywood Weekly Magazine Film Festival will proceed the official launch of the American Film Market which takes place later during the week in neighboring Santa Monica, California. Over 8,000 industry leaders, from over 80 countries which will include acquisition and development executives, agents, distributors, producers writers will be attending the annual American Film Market event. We plan to invite VIP's attending the American Film Market to our event and expect many will stop by providing major exposure to all films screened during Hollywood Weekly Magazine's Film Festival.

This year we will offer awards, prize packages from sponsors, trophies and exposure in Hollywood Weekly Magazine to our winning submissions.
