Wisconsin Film Festival

Some festivals rely entirely on submissions for their titles, while others are completely curated and programmed without a request for submissions. The Wisconsin Film Festival works both ways in its efforts to showcase emerging local talent while presenting the best films available from around the globe.

The Festival presents quality work from outside the mainstream film industry that otherwise may not reach commercial platforms. We look for films that represent different facets of filmmaking, from polished productions to no-budget gems. Each year’s selections are a blend of films made available to festivals, scouted from around the world combined with smaller, under-the-radar works that illustrate a variety of cinematic styles.

Alongside those films from all over the world, we present films with a connection to the state of Wisconsin. That’s where you and your film come in.
