Tribal Film Festival seeks Indigenous films from around the world. TFF plays an important part in pushing for the accessibility of Indigenous films with inspiring and uplifting stories that entertain and educate.

NOW accepting any and all #NoDAPL films as we will have a panel on the subject of Standing Rock.

We know that, as filmmakers, we have an unlimited amount of stories to tell and to preserve. Therefore we have partnered with TribalTV for super-distribution and to extend our reach globally.

What sets us apart? Automatic Distribution on TribalTV. Heck yeah!! All films submitted will be ELIGIBLE* for a non-exclusive deal with TribalTV. TribalTV is a multi-platform distributor of Indigenous films with inspiring and uplifting stories, including documentaries, feature films, series, music videos, animation, 3D, in all genres. TribalTV believes it is time filmmakers started being more in charge of their revenues rather than going through the series of middlemen standing in between filmmakers and their audience. TribalTV places the filmmakers first, as the filmmaker, you will retain your rights in a non-exclusive three-year distribution deal. Tribal Film Festival is a portal into the broadband channel TribalTV and is announcing the opportunity to have every film submitted to Tribal Film Festival a chance to achieve a worldwide audience through Hulu, Vudu, Amazon, etc. *Films will go through QC prior to be selected for distribution.
