The Atlanta Film Festival was named one of MovieMaker Magazine's 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee in 2025!
It’s with great pleasure and honor that MovieMaker Magazine has again named the Atlanta Film Festival one of the 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee in 2025!
Here is what MovieMaker Magazine had to say about ATLFF:
“The festival, which just celebrated its 49th year, is another regular on this list thanks in large part to its Oscar qualifying status, screenwriting competition, and generous hospitality, which includes covering airfare and lodging for moviemakers with feature films in competition and a travel stipend for other films. Distributors in attendance have included Oscilloscope Laboratories, A24, and Tubi. Additional industry representation has included 3 Arts Entertainment, Big Picture Casting, Rose Locke Casting, Vanishing Angle, Seed & Spark, Buffalo 8, and more. It is known for promoting Southern talent, and especially women and people of color, as well as for adventurous programming, including the dialogue-free Finnish feature Giant’s Kettle, which played the latest edition. The festival also hosts parties galore.”
