Mission
From Gaza to San Pedro Sula our mission is to offer filmmakers across the globe an opportunity to tell their story and give audiences and critics a firsthand look at locally produced cinema. Powered by you, our goal is to build the largest film festival on earth.
Description
Unlike most film festivals, uFests has no submission fees or selection process. The entire schedule is programmed by you the filmmaker. Your work will be judged by a jury of your peers rather than a few festival programmers. Any filmmaker can bring uFests to their city and every movie goer will have the opportunity to rate the film after the screening has concluded. Numerous awards will be given throughout the year and box office totals are tracked and recorded. In addition, filmmakers will have the opportunity to earn revenue which can be used to submit to other festivals.
Festival Experience
This is where the fun begins. Rather than being restricted to a festival’s experience, uFests lets you create your own. Upon being officially scheduled you can start planning red carpet events, after-parties, press and industry outreach, and marketing. You decide how much (or how little) you want to put into your experience.
