August 8, 9, 10

Indiefest’s film market, which takes place August 8th – 10th, is situated before all other world film markets, which take place September thru April. The advantage for filmmakers and distributors alike is both the exclusive surroundings and the timing for acquisitions and distribution executives to make their competitive purchase choices before other festivals and markets unveil their film selections. By including a script market, Indiefest will also bring together writer’s with acquisitions executives, producers and agents.

Filmmakers and writers whose projects are selected for presentation at Indiefest will also receive booth/space to market all of their projects to festival market attendees. A limited number of additional spaces will be made available to filmmakers and writers regardless of entry or their status in the competitions. Click here to register for booth space at Indiefest.
