Kansas City FilmFest is our region’s newest film festival, but backed by years of experience. Plan to join us April 22—26 at the AMC Mainstreet Theatre for this film extravaganza, which includes an Oscar-nominated documentary and a Sundance favorite.

How can Kansas City FilmFest be both old and new? Because two of Kansas City’s venerable film festivals have joined forces to produce one major festival.

FilmFestKC and the Kansas City Filmmakers Jubilee have combined efforts to produce this annual, five-day celebration of film and filmmakers. The expertise of both organizations will be maximized and enhanced by the partnership.

Kansas City FilmFest offers:

• Screenings of the best short and feature films submitted from over 20 countries.
• Selected international feature films.
• Opportunities to meet and interact with professional filmmakers.
• Workshops and seminars on a variety of topics.
• Awards for filmmakers.
• Receptions and parties to keep the celebration going.

Kansas City FilmFest 2009 also includes:

• Opening night showing of the new Kevin Willmott film, The Only Good Indian, fresh from its premiere at Sundance.
• The Oscar-nominated feature documentary, The Garden, by Scott Hamilton Kennedy.
• Seminars, workshops and panels including a demo of the HD Red camera, a lighting seminar and introduction to a grip truck, and “Breaking & Entering,” a dialogue about getting into the film and media business.
