Engages, Educates, and Empowers Student Filmmakers
Film industry professionals mentor students to step out of their comfort zone and tell their stories. We unleash untapped creativity and encourage the next generation of working filmmakers to transform the culture of the industry.
We were so impressed with the quality of the student films that we received this year and it was very difficult to choose a select few for screening in our Young Filmmakers Track at the 2016 SOMA Film Festival. But here are the winning films and their directors -- just click on the name to watch the film!
