About the festival

The Milwaukee Underground Film Festival is a student run film festival devoted to showcasing independent, artist driven cinema. For fifteen years we have been programming filmmakers that defy convention in an attempt to amplify unheard voices. Our festival celebrates the potential of cinema to imbue a community with excitement, critical discussion, and open-mindedness through the presentation of new artistic forms.

Each year a special guest jury hands out multiple awards.
