Join us for a five-day celebration of independent film in the heart of Fredericksburg. FFF 2025 will showcase films from around the world, including panel discussions, filmmaker Q&As, and networking opportunities with creatives across various fields.

This year’s theme, “It’s Not the Camera, It’s the Eye,” highlights the idea that the true power of a film lies not in the equipment used, but in the filmmaker’s vision that brings it to life. While some of these films may have been created with limited budgets, they break free from the conventional structures of mainstream cinema, driven by creativity and originality. Join us April 16-20 at multiple locations throughout downtown!
