ALBUQUERQUE UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL APRIL 2025

ALBUQUERQUE UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL APRIL 2025

Albuquerque Underground Film Fest is an event for anyone who made a sweet music video that sits with 47 views on YouTube, or made a short film that was submitted to three film festivals and got shown in the basement of San Antonio Comic Con.

If you release your movies on DVD and leave them in Little Free Libraries, or just show them to your friends and family at birthday parties, this event is for you.

Our truly independent filmmaking scene, the kind that’s never had a studio to back us, celebrities to star in our movies, or even enough money in our bank account to be able to apply for the State Film Incentive has been left behind. On April 24 we’re taking a step to change that.

As this is a DIY event, we ask that everyone BYOC (Bring Your Own Chair)

RULES

This event is for Albuquerque/NM-based filmmakers who self-funded their own movies.
You can submit as many projects as you like.
They can be up to 15 minutes long, but with the stipulation that anything over that must come with an additional piece that is under 7 minutes.
Participants will not be paid, but are invited to bring their own merch tables to sell shirts/stickers/DVDs/zines/sculptures/whatever…
NO SUBMISSION FEE
(but we’ll gladly accept donations at the door to help pay for our rent)
Send a DropBox or Google Drive link with your video to:

All ages welcome, but we may show some less child-friendly stuff (with a warning for families) for the second half of the show.
