Buffalo Dreams Family Film Festival

Buffalo Dreams Family Film Festival will run during Buffalo Dreams Fantastic Film Festival each year. Our mission is twofold: to bring to the Buffalo area the best family films from around the world, and to introduce Western New York student filmmakers under the age of 17 to the benefits and culture of film festivals. We will devote programming to international family films for our general audience, but also screen the films of young WNY filmmakers, who will experience their work on a big screen, and we will engage them in Q& A sessions.

Each WNY Young Student who submits a film to Buffalo Dreams will receive a Certificate of Participation, because participation is what this aspect of the festival is all about. Depending on how many films we receive and select, we will devote as many as four weekend matinee blocks to this program, which we view as a service to Buffalo’s growing film community.

Submissions should be made via FilmFreeway or Without A Box, to Buffalo Dreams Fantastic Film Festival.
