About the festival

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

The 15-Minutes of Fame is a selection of independent films, submitted by filmmakers from across the U.S., and around the globe.

Now in its third season, our summer edition consists of shorts, and microbudget feature films. Genres include everything from music videos to documentaries. 

The festival was founded in 2008 by husband-and-wife filmmakers Ray and Migdalia Etheridge, who are included in a panel of judges who grade the films on their originality, technical merits, and entertainment value.  135 entries were received this year, and 33 of the best are being presented.

AWARDS

Judges also selected "Best" films in the several categories, and the Award Winners are indicated in the Program Schedule.

TICKETS

Remember, ADMISSION IS FREE!  No tickets are necessary. All that you need to do is  RSVP. Anyone who is interested in independent filmmaking is urged to attend. There will be group discussions, and "Q&A" sessions with attending filmmakers.

FILM RATINGS

Please note that the films in our festival are not rated, and many of them contain subject matter or situations intended for mature audiences only.  Not recommended for younger viewers.
