Manhattan Rep’s STORIES Film Festival
STORIES are the most transformational tool known to man. And in this Brave New World we are experiencing, we need STORIES now more than ever! Stories make people think, feel, and most importantly, stories help people make new choices about life. How many people do you think made a change in their lives after seeing Rocky? Or Selma? Or Shindler’s List? Stories are not just entertainment. They teach, make people laugh and cry, and they INSPIRE people to reach out and connect again, and often, they inspire people to tell their own stories too. So Manhattan Rep’s STORIES Film Festival is about the narrative, the amazing adventure, the social injustice, the love lost and found again, the crazy challenge, the political commentary, the wacky situation, the impossible dream, how to survive and actually have some fun in a pandemic and so much more, as we celebrate digital storytelling at it’s finest! From September 15, 2021 through October 3, 2021, we will be streaming your Short Films (up to 45 minutes in length,) and Short Zoom Theatre Films (up to 45 minutes in length,) online where a worldwide audience can vote on your submission. We will announce the Award Winners online on Saturday Night October 9, 2021! Also, we will be hosting Zoom interview Q & A's with filmmakers and Zoom theatremakers.
