The Somerville Film Festival is an annual film festival meant to showcase innovative independent cinema from around the world by up-and-coming artists.
The festival hopes to be the voice and representation for films with a unique voice and message, regardless of how low the budget might be.
Aiming to inspire, motivate and award new talent, The Somerville Film Festival is a first-year event that will take place on October 10 - 13, 2016 in the bustling Davis Square neighborhood of Somerville (MA). As a celebration of the cinematic and visual arts, the festival will bring diverse international films to our community (The Somerville Theatre) and showcase the best regional filmmakers.
Somerville Film Festival aims to expand the artistic image of our region, engage new audiences in the world of film, and inspire creativity in all of us.
The 2016 selection will be announced on October 2nd, 2016.
The Somerville Film Festival will screen during 4 days at the Somerville Theatre.
Each film we designate as an "Official Selection" will receive a high-resolution .png image of our festival laurels to be used for marketing and promotional materials as the filmmaker sees fit.
Out of the official selections, an international jury will select one winner in each category (Narrative feature, Documentary feature, Narrative short, Documentary short...). The winning films will be screened at the Somerville Theatre. The winning filmmakers will receive a high-resolution .png image of our festival laurels with the "WINNER" label to be used as the filmmaker sees fit.
One film will be labeled as 'best of the fest' and win the Somerville Powder Award. The value of the Somerville Powder equals 500 US dollar worth of submission fees with partner festivals (Toronto Film Week, Hong Kong Arthouse Film Fesival, Verona International Film Festival, Manhattan Independent Film Festival ...).
