This documentary film festival provides local filmmakers an opportunity to create new works and showcase them at a community screening.
The contest is open to anyone 5 years of age or older who lives, works or attends school in Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda, as well as Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, and Concord. Film submissions will be judged in one of four categories: elementary school, middle school, high school, and adult. One studentmade film will also be selected as an Audience Favorite.
The April 15 community screening will feature selected films and accompanying award presentations. Last year's winners included "Anika's Quincinera" by elementary school student Lukacs Gero, "The Culture of Skateboarding Revealed" by middle school student Jack Nixon and "Behind the Scenes of Campolindo's 'Beauty and the Beast'" by high school student Frenel Francisco.
