This event is interested in promoting diversity in the media. This festival is an important event for people who are interested in making films and breaking into the industry. It provides opportunities to show the films produced by local people, gives them exposure to the process, and allows for them to make connections. Many attendees find that the festival is very interesting and entertaining as well. BFF, as it is commonly referred, has been known to bring out celebrities for the event.

BFF will have musicians this year on the Coca-Cola Sound Stage. They’ll be showing free movies at the Sony & Orville Redenbacher Outdoor Theatre and the Marvel Experience at the Skylight. In recent years, attendees have been lucky enough to view some of the first screenings of projects.
