FilmFest 2010
The Kansas City FilmFest: a new name for a new combined festival bringing the best of the KC Jubilee Film Festival—our long running, juried shorts fest—with KC’s oldest film festival, FilmFest KC, offering curated programming of great international and independent feature films.
Occurring annually in April (2010 dates are April 14—18), the Kansas City FilmFest is a juried festival for both shorts and features in several divisions: the Heartland Division (filmmakers from Missouri or Kansas), US / International Division and CinemaJAZZ Division (films inspired by jazz). We will also be curating special programs of international and independent films.
We are excited about our new festival creating a new tradition in downtown Kansas City in the newly renovated, historic, all-digital AMC Mainstreet Theatre. There is a growing vibrancy downtown with KC Live, the Sprint Center and an expanding residential population while blocks away is the hip, cool Crossroads Art District, a growing collection of home-grown media production companies mixed among the many art galleries. We are poised to build Kansas City FilmFest into a major regional film festival celebrating the love of movies and moviemaking.
In difficult economic times we always seek to escape, at least briefly, from our travails. Join our celebration. Get involved as a volunteer. Be inspired by the creativity of these artists.
