Wheels and Fins International Film Festival (0)

Début du Festival: 09 juin 2018      Fin du Festival: 09 juin 2018

2018 sees the second ever Wheels and Fins International Film Festival - an event attached to the awesome Wheels and Fins Festival (in Joss Bay, Kent).

Wheels and Fins is all about Action Sports and music, for our first year in 2017 we had submissions from 21 countries and 5 continents meaning we could bring the worldwide action sports community to one place and celebrate it with style!

We are looking for exciting, beautiful and authentic films that showcase the things we love - the sea, beaches, cliffs etc... you get the idea!

All Official Selection films will be screened at the main Wheels and Fins Festival in September 2018

PLEASE ENSURE YOU SUBMIT YOUR FILM IN THE CORRECT CATEGORY
Films submitted to the incorrect category will be automatically disqualified & any fees paid will not be reimbursed.

At our discretion, we may choose to transfer a film to the correct category, but only if the appropriate level of submission fee has been paid. Any excess fees paid will not be reimbursed.
