SPECIAL EVENT: Nick Cave & Warren Ellis fans rejoice! We are excited to announce this global cinema event taking place May 11, 2022!

As part of the All-Access Pass perks, passholders can redeem their AAPass ticket credits for attendance to this incredible film event. Screening as part of NorthwestFest 2022.

Every year, our programming director and committees have the daunting (and exciting!) task of watching and narrowing down the prospective festival films. This year, the amount of stunning submissions received has made the job even tougher. We are so grateful for our programming crew! That said, here is a taste of some of the films we have coming your way this May!

We will be hosting both in-person films and a selection of online titles, as well as workshops, a Filmmaking Masterclass, and a very special event on May 11th, 2022. Details to come!

Your All-Access pass will get you into all of them. Every event that we are hosting during our festival run will be available to you!

Canadian filmmaker Avi Federgreen is hosting 2 online workshops covering topics like securing and developing material to monetizing and distributing your film.

Check out our latest round up of films that have screened at the festival and a guide to the streaming platforms that are hosting them. Catch up on the films you may have missed from the comfort of your own home.
