So much value, community, and resources for indie film makers! The venue is large and accommodating – everyone communicative and professional- attendees ready to network… great experience.
This festival and its team are amazing! Everyone was so kind, encouraging and talented. You all are a gift to us filmmakers. Thank you so much!
Nevada Women’s Film Fest was so much fun and very well run! Our short musical comedy ‘Catalogue of Noses’ got a lotta love, particularly from program director Nikki! Plus, we were honoured to be nominated for an award in a very tough category.
