The Indy Film Fest has quickly grown into one of the Midwest’s fastest-growing and most-watched film festivals. Every year, it seeks to create a shared experience around film by championing movies that entertain, challenge and expand perspectives in Indianapolis and beyond.
For ten days every spring, visiting filmmakers, industry insiders and film fans from around the globe have the chance to experience 100+ short and independent features, documentaries and world cinema films in a diverse range of genres and subject matter. Films are presented multiple times in three theaters at Indianapolis’ premiere art museum, Newfields. Films compete in an array of juried award categories, and are eligible for cash prizes, as well as an Audience Award for the fan favorite.
The Indy Film Fest showcases more than just great films. In addition to screening movies, the festival provides entertainment of all kinds, including after-parties, panel discussions and much-anticipated sneak previews of Oscar-worthy studio releases for its 5,000+ attendees. The Indy Film Fest also focuses its energy on bringing in more filmmakers so they can connect with an engaged audience and take home valuable feedback about their films.
