Manhattan Film Festival Company Profile
The Manhattan Film Festival has proven to be the most innovated festival of the 21st Century. The festival was founded by two independent filmmakers who learned firsthand how hard it is to find an independent film an audience. Formerly known as Independent Features, they pioneered the first film festival in which film selection is done online via a web-based competition. Today they are the first to offer filmmakers their preferred selection process: participation in their signature web-based competition or review by their festival's programming team.
