A new bread of filmmaker is emerging in todays media environment.

In today's constantly evolving video revolution more and more independent underground films are been made by unseen media revolutionaries, however most of these unsung heroes of the media world are content to let their work stagnate on Youtube where it will never get see or appreciated by a real audience. Why? Because along with the great responsibility that comes from being an artist also comes fear and insecurity. Today's filmmakers lack the courage to show their work to an audience because they fear rejection they lack the courage to stand up and have their voices heard. This is why the Minneapolis Underground Film Festival was formed. To give voice to those who seek to express themselves and have their work seen. Filmmakers this is a call to you: Submit your film have your work seen and have the courage to show your art to world!
There is a talented new breed of filmmaker out there, a breed of filmmaker that does not play by the established rules, that bridles against the crap they are spoon fed on TV on a daily basis. This new breed of filmmakers realizes that the technology is here all it takes is a new vision, a new way of looking at things to truly showcase your talents. The subject matter can be anything that is why we have freedom of speech. It takes the filmmaker to stand up and proclaim I am an artist and I am going to show the world my vision. However many or most do not because they are so used to feeling the pain of rejection. Most film festivals are run by collusion and corruption and the films are judged not by artists but by politicians and horse traders. It is time to stand up and reclaim our rights as artists to express our vision without fear of the mainstream.
My challenge to all filmmakers out their is simple: SUBMIT YOUR FILM TO THE MINNEAPOLIS UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL film and have your work treated with the respect it deserves.
What have you got to lose? Absolutely nothing and everything to gain. We do do not put limitations on the films we accept we are not looking for certain subject matter or genre. I will tell you what we are looking for: ART. The ability to express yourself without fear and to touch others in a way few have ever seen or felt. Is this you? Is this the filmmaker who will dare to submit to the Minneapolis Underground Film Festival? We are waiting to hear from you and we are anxiously anticipating watching your work. So do not delay submit your film today.
