Dear Filminute Friends and Fans,
We’ve made the tough decision to postpone the Filminute 2020 festival. While we are an online festival, our community of indie filmmakers and creative producers were still deeply affected by the worldwide health crisis.
By Spring 2021, we hope that the creative, film and television industries will have found new bearings. We have started organizing a Filminute retrospective for the Spring as one of the new initiatives that we can run regardless of the status of the coronavirus. By that time, we expect to be able to announce new dates for the actual film festival and competition. In the meantime, all films submitted to Filminute 2020 will be eligible for the 2021 festival.
Please continue to follow Filminute via social media and we look forward to engaging with our filmmakers and fans as we all try to better understand the changing world of indie film.
