Selected for the Nashville Film Festival

We are very excited to have been selected for the Nashville Film Festival this year.  NaFF is one of only 24 film festivals in the United States designated as an Academy Award- qualifying festival for short films, meaning that winners of the narrative and animation short competitions are automatically qualified for Academy Award consideration.

"Revolution Reykjavik" will screen in Nashville from April 19 - 26th.
