Overview
Join us in empowering the next generation of filmmakers! The Fire Film Festival, now in its 12th year, is a national platform celebrating stories of redemption and hope. This year, on March 15th, we gathered in the Buena Vida Auditorium to showcase 23 powerful short films from talented creators across the nation, culminating in an inspiring awards ceremony. Your support can help us grow this unique event into an international festival, providing opportunities for storytellers worldwide. Our vision includes expanding to international submissions, offering writing workshops, and creating immersive art showcases between screenings—transforming the festival into a hub of creativity and inspiration. By giving today, you help ignite creativity, inspire hope, and shape the future of film.
Student Quote
"The Fire Film Festival made me fall in love with film. I'm a senior now, but I still remember freshman year when I went to the festival for the first time. It was so inspiring to see that our University had so many students and films of such high quality. More than that, each film, even the ones from outside our department, had its own soul and had so much love and care poured into each one. Because of the Fire Film Festival, I added a film minor to my degree and have begun making films with other students, and it has forever changed the trajectory of my life. God's presence is so evident in these films, and I am forever grateful to call it my ministry." Sarah McDaniel
