Lynchburg Film Festival
Screening over 30 independent films from around the world, across the U.S. and right here in our local community, this year’s Lynchburg Film Festival is an all-day showcase of bold new stories and diverse voices. From gripping dramas, visually stunning animations, compelling documentaries, sharp comedies, heart-pounding suspense, and experimental films, the lineup offers something for every movie lover. Hear from special guests, meet the filmmakers, join Q&A sessions, and discover exciting new films you can’t find anywhere else, on the big screen in the Historic Theater.
Presented in partnership with James River Arts, and generously sponsored by City of Lynchburg, Virginia Film Office, Virginia Production Alliance, Void Film Lab, and Firebrick Pottery.
