Welcome to the official site of the ATLGFF

In its inaugural year, The Atlanta Global Film Festival celebrates independent filmmaking by providing a platform for filmmakers to showcase their art and voice. In the burgeoning film hub of Atlanta, Georgia, this festival invites filmmakers from around the world to submit their short and feature films across various categories. Selected films will be featured on the festival’s website, with winning films receiving the honor of being screened at a prestigious theater in Atlanta. Join us in the heart of the "New Hollywood of the South" to experience the diverse and vibrant world of independent cinema.

Atlanta Global Film Festival proudly accepts entries on FilmFreeway, the world's #1 way to enter film festivals and creative contests.
