About the festival

Shit in the Dirt doesn't care about imperfections - in fact, we embrace them. At our festival, we want to celebrate low-to-no-budget filmmaking by exhibiting films that appear amateurish in nature, yet are beautifully unique in their own way.

There is so much focus nowadays on achieving technical perfection, so we hope that you will instead join us on December 13th at the Apohadion Theater in Portland, Maine at 8pm, to celebrate how much a few dweebs and a camera can do!

Awards and prizes to be announced...
