FILM FESTIVAL
Virginia’s
Festival for the Independent-Minded
|
The James River
Film Festival is a celebration of independent film, video
and animation. Each April the festival brings nationally and
internationally-known independent filmmakers to Richmond to
screen and discuss their work.
Held annually since
1994, the festival has staged more than 270 workshops, screenings,
and seminars. In addition, the program includes retrospectives;
film performances with live, original music; and a
juried competition of short films.
JRFF awards up to $2,000 in cash and prizes – another
way RMIC supports and stimulates independent filmmaking.

| The
James River Film Festival (JRFF) was established by Michael
Jones, along with other Richmond, Virginia area university
faculty members, media professionals and volunteers.
In
1999, the James River Film Festival joined forces with
the Richmond Flicker to form the Richmond Moving Image
Co-op, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that supports independent
media artists. |
