14th MV INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL

The recurring theme of the annual Martha’s Vineyard International Film

Festival is “Other Places, Other People”; the festival’s purpose is to encourage

attendees to think broadly (about how huge the world of film is) and deeply

(about the universal concerns and desires that unite all people). About 90%

of all film selections are non-US productions, helping to fulfill the festival

mission of promoting cross-cultural understanding through film.

Martha’s Vineyard International Film Festival is now accepting short film

submissions for its September 3- 8, 2019 festival. We select 10 short films for
