The Green Mountain Film Festival will be reviewing submissions for the next festival this fall and winter. If you'd like your short, documentary, feature, or experimental work to be considered, please submit it via the FilmFreeway portal here.
Montpelier, Vermont is a warm community in which to celebrate the best of world cinema and is a breeding ground for young filmmakers and new ideas.
We especially encourage queer and BIPOC filmmakers and boundary-pushing storytellers to submit. For information: Please contact Sam Kann: programmaer@gmffestival.org. Deadline to submit is November 25th.
