Athens Film Festival is nothing without the support of incredible local volunteers - everything you love about this festival was created through (joyfully) donated time. From venue management, to box office, to projection, event planning, yoga, Q&A’s, photography — the list of talented, supportive folks in our corner is staggering. Thank you endlessly! You are the life force of this fest!

Fun fact - the Athens Film Festival was started by a UGA EMST graduate! While this is an international film festival with movies from all over the world, we love seeing students return with their work — thank you to UGA Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication for your continued support!

Just over a week ago - the films, the parties, the Q&A’s, the red carpets, the networking, the workshops - it was an absolute delight - we adored every moment, and are ready to reminisce.
