ABOUT FLATLAND FILM FESTIVAL

Flatland Film Festival was established in 2003. Flatland Film Festival is a program of LHUCA that aims to cultivate an appreciation for film, video, and the digital moving-image expression and to support artists working in this mode of expression.

Over the past 21 years, Flatland Film Festival has been fortunate to have filmmakers from all over the world screen their work and provide personal insight into their inspiration and motivation by participating in panel discussions.

Flatland Film Festival attendees have experienced a diverse collection of feature films, documentaries, shorts, animations, music videos, art installations, and other forms of creative sight and sound that stimulate emotion and challenge your perspective.
