WorldFest Houston
Houston, Texas, USA
Notes
- WorldFest-Houston is unique in the festival world, as it is totally dedicated to the Independent feature and short film. WorldFest does not screen any films produced by the major studios or distributors as it feels that the Indie filmmakers are the ones that need support from a film festival. WorldFest offers 8 major areas of competition and awards, including documentary, business, TV & cable production, experimental, short subjects, TV commercials, screenplays, feature films and student films. Both film and video formats are accepted, video for the jury. (from the festival's web site, 2001)
- The festival takes place since 1968.
