Northeast Mountain Film Festival (2)

映画祭の開始: 21 8月 2020      映画祭の終了: 23 8月 2020

The Northeast Mountain Film Festival originated in a small historic town Dillard, GA nestled in Blueridge mountains with spectacular natural views and sceneries. The first year was celebrated in a very intimate environment where film-makers came over from different countries to celebrate the festivity of films and screenplays. We believe in simplicity and making the right connections to grow together in the long run.

We are now accepting films, scripts and screenplays for NMFF 2020 session. Every year, we are celebrating and experiencing the era of Films and Cinema with highly accomplished professionals. Our festival provides a platform for the most promising independent films and screenplays. The festival aims to promote exchange between emerging directors, new and established film workers, the global film industry and the community. Whether it's a major production from a professional company, a student film, or a micro-budget labor of love, the Festival is committed to giving each film due consideration. Northeast Mountain Film Festival had received over 500 films from 40 countries and screened only the extra-ordinary 50 films including short, feature and documentaries in different genres such drama, thriller, social awakening in its first year.
Please Note: Due to the restrictions imposed on traveling due to high risk of pandemic of Coronavirus, our Annual Event might cancel this year. Thank you again for your submissions and there will not be any changes in judging and awards and certificates will be mailed this year.
