Film Festival *
New This Year!
The Detroit Winter Blast Film Festival celebrates Michigan filmmakers,
as well as films about Michigan. Warm up, sip a hot drink and take
in a flick in the heated tent at Campus Martius Park! A complete schedule
of film showings and events will be posted here at the end of January.
This event is free.
About the Festival
This new, groundbreaking
Film Festival is being held at Campus Martius Park
on Woodward Avenue. The Festival's goal is to provide a venue for
Michigan
Filmmakers to showcase their work and to foster a collaborative network
that results
in the creation of new motion pictures.
The three-day
event spotlights independent filmmakers and welcomes submissions of
motion pictures created by Michigan filmmakers or by others provided
the subject matter is related to the state of Michigan. Submissions
not related to the state of Michigan may also be considered. Some
filmmakers may be invited to speak after their work is shown and answer
questions from the audience in an informal setting.
