Filmmakers assemble! T.H.E. Film Festival SoCal 2026 is now open for submissions on where we are a verified and Gold festival (link to submit in bio).

Why submit your films? How about these awesome reasons:

* have your film shown on a super high res screen in a purpose built theater sponsored by featuring their incredible ultra high end loudspeakers. This means your films get to be seen and heard at the highest quality - just as they should be!

* a built in audience! As part of America’s longest running HiFi audio show, attendees are audiophiles and cinephiles which means they are actively seeking new art! Last year we had 8,000 people in attendance.

* Sunday is the winner’s awards luncheon and ceremony. Filmmakers are invited to this catered event for networking and celebration!

* Winners trophies. Unlike other festivals, our winning films receive their trophies complimentary at no charge!

Submit your films now at the link in our bio if you’re this on IG and at https://filmfreeway.com/THEFilmFestival-2 if you’re seeing this anywhere else.

T.H.E. Film Festival SoCal Edition is:
June 26-28, 2026
