It is our belief that local filmmakers need a festival that doesn't cater to outside production from big studios alone while generally overlooking fresh talent right here in New England.We hope to show investors that we have plenty of home grown talent that is worth investing in.It is a festival run by filmmakers for filmmakers.We will be accepting films from Rhode Island,Massachusettes and Connecticut.
