Happy 2012 everyone!
We’ve been quiet for a few months while we work out the details of this year’s SALT LAKE CITY FILM FESTIVAL, but it’s just about time to get rolling again.
Submissions for this years festival open on February 1, 2012—which is just a few days away!
We’ll begin regular updates soon, so keep an eye on this site for more information. We can’t wait to see what everyone has been working on this winter, so we hope you’re ready for another great year of the SALT LAKE CITY FILM FESTIVAL!
The Salt Lake City Film Festival accepts films from around the globe and brings them to SLC for one weekend in August. This year’s festival was held August 18-21 at the Tower Theater, Broadway Center Theater, Post Theater and Brewvies Cinema Pub. Organized by a small crew of regular guys and gals from around our town, there’s an incredibly warm, inviting feel to the festival that visitors have found to be a contrast from festivals like Sundance. In years past, documentary films like Best Worst Movie, Cleanflix, American Jihadist, and Sons of a Gun have helped the festival to gain a reputation as an abnormally doc-heavy fest, while still bringing narrative films from newer filmmakers of the highest caliber. The SLCFF also gives directors of short films an opportunity to submit their work, and shorts were scheduled to precede each full-length screening. This year’s program kept with the themes while providing a laid-back atmosphere and plenty of after parties to mingle at.
