The Alternative Film Festival is an IMDb-qualifying quarterly event that is committed to bringing filmmakers of all levels - even beginners - a chance at taking home a festival award. The online competition are held in March, June, September and December.


AltFF accept films in all genres. We are giving out awards in multiple categories.


Each quarter, we will give out a Best Film Award (Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter)


All other award winners will be permanently displayed in the Winners section of this site. Please note that we will not be displaying your film on our website.


We screen the 10 Best Film Finalists for each edition. All of the other Category Award Nominees are screened privately by our judges and are eligible for IMDb-approved awards (filmmakers will be able to list their nominations and wins on their film's IMDb page).


We are the ALTERNATIVE FILM FESTIVAL - we are not your typical film awards! We release our Category Award Winners on the days leading up to our quarterly event where we screen the 10 Best Film of the Festival Finalists.
