The Experimental Film Fest 2026

The Experimental Film Fest features Avant-Garde and Experimental films in any sub-genre. We want the unusual, the macabre, the offbeat, the beautiful, the ugly, and the truly experimental film. Explore the medium in ways that are not only unconventional but entertaining. Remember that you want an audience for your films, so be sensitive to the eyes, ears, and emotions of those who will experience your work.

Student films are judged with all other films for awards, but are also judged separately for Best Student Film. This award is meant to encourage young filmmakers to participate in film festivals and to bring new talent to the screen for audiences.

***WE DO NOT OFFER FEE WAIVERS***

Be sure to listen to The Experimental Film Podcast and arrange to be a guest.

The awards carry the following prizes:

Festival Winner - $100
Critic's Choice - $75
Audience Favorite - $75
Best Student Film - $50
Best Animation - $50

2026 FESTIVAL DATE IS SEPTEMBER 19, 2026

Bank of the Arts 317 Middle St, New Bern, NC 28560

2026 FESTIVAL AWARS TBA

Films must be downloadable via Festhome. If your film is password protected, please provide the password with your submission.

*** If your film is selected for screening at the festival, you must provide a short (1-2 minute) video that introduces you and your film to the audience. This introductory film is required for screening at the festival. ***

You may submit your film regardless of the creation date as long as it is your work.

This year, there is a 15-minute time limit for films.

***WE DO NOT OFFER FEE WAIVERS***



  Festhome holds accountable fees festivals by holding the payment of the fees of most newer festivals until they have viewed the submissions, held their festivals and other methods.
