Slower Lower Film Festival entries due May 7

April 11, 2025

Revival House’s annual Slower Lower Short Film Festival is set for 7 p.m., Wednesday, May 21, at the Milton Theatre, 110 Union St., Milton.

Festival organizers welcome filmmakers of all ages to submit their original works for consideration. Seasoned professionals and up-and-coming visionaries alike are encouraged to share their stories with a big-screen audience. As with all Revival House local film festivals, there is no cost to submit films for consideration.

From dramas to comedies, from animation to sci-fi, the Slower Lower Short Film Festival celebrates the artistry and storytelling of filmmakers from around the area. The screenings will be followed by an onstage question-and-answer session with the filmmakers, who will talk about their creative processes.

The deadline is midnight, Wedesday, May 7, to submit films that are fewer than 30 minutes in length. To enter, filmmakers must submit a waiver found on the Revival House website, therevivalhousetheater.com, and send a link of their film to therevivalhouse@gmail.com

Selected filmmakers will be notified via email and will have their work screened at the historic Milton Theatre.

"We’re excited to bring back the Slower Lower Short Film Festival to the Milton Theatre," said Rob Rector, co-creator of Revival House. "This festival is all about celebrating the incredible talent and creativity of our local filmmakers. We can’t wait to see what stories our community brings to life in 2025."
