Abstract

With the revolution of filmmaking has come the need to bring films and filmmakers together. The creation of film festivals provides a place where filmmakers can showcase their films. Thousands of film festivals have formed around the world over the past decades. Some are larger and more prestigious; some are smaller and less known. film festivals range in the types of films they host. Some festivals are specifically for comedy and some for horror. Some film festivals are open for any person of any country to enter. film festivals provide excellent opportunities for unknown and independent filmmakers to become known. In a world where Hollywood and mainstream cinema dominates the market, film festivals provide a chance for independent filmmakers to publicize their work and possibly sell their films for distribution. However, are film festivals just a place where filmmakers try to sell their movies? Or can they do more?
