ReelHeART Mission and Objective
Do you know in your heart that your film is good? Really good! Did your film miss out in the programmers final cut of a recent festival? Well then, ReelHeART International Film Festival (RHIFF) is for you.
Put the ©ReelHeART Programmers Pledge to the test.
2005’s “Best Of The Fest” winner did with their film, which was “Banned in Britain”. The filmmakers knew the ©ReelHeART Programmers Pledge got them past the usual review practices, going on to win at their first festival and their first ever award courtesy of ReelHeART.
Our 2006 Feature film Winner won “Best Editing” and “1st Place Feature Film” at ReelHeART, their first film festival ever…now that’s BIG! 2007 brought out the best in short films.
Short films rose in 2007 to take Best Editing and Best Sound. Short films also took home the best Actor and Best Actress Awards which were two new awards added in 2007. We think that’s pretty cool-
The ReelHeART International Film Festival (RHIFF) is for films with real heart.
Regardless of genre, it’s the story we’re interested in. If your film has that balance of a terrific story, an interesting vision and solid production standards, then an audience should see your film.
Any Genre is accepted at ReelHeART: Drama, Comedy, Black Comedy, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Film Noir, Satire, Mocumentary, Animation, Experimental, Music Videos, and so on. And as everyone knows, we BIG on documentaries too! In the past few seasons, distribution buzz is first created from our roster of documentaries, and then word of mouth spreads regarding the quality of films in the rest of our categories-
We prefer your film to be a Premiere but, it’s not an absolute.
Never entered a film festival before? If you have a great film, a fun film, an outrageous film, a quirky film, an intense film; a film that will rip your heart out or a film that will make your ribs hurt with laughter, then ReelHeART is for you.
If you have never entered a competition before, ReelHeART should be your first film festival stop. The experience you gain here, the networking opportunities and the welcome you’ll receive are among our priorities and quite possibly one of the top film festival experiences you’ll ever have-
