The 7th Annual ISFFH Celebrates the Next Generation of Filmmakers

North Hollywood, CA - Join us at the 7th Annual International Student Film Festival Hollywood (ISFFH) taking place November 7 – 8, 2009 at Beverly Garland’s Holiday Inn in the NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood.  65 films from 9 countries were accepted into this year’s festival. Films have come from Vietnam, Turkey, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Romania, Israel, Canada, Australia and the USA.  Film students range from elementary to graduate school.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see fresh new films by the next generation of filmmakers! $10.00 lets you not only enjoy these films for an entire day, but gives you the opportunity to meet filmmakers. Filmmakers engage in a brief discussion with the audience after their films have been screened. This year we have a number of filmmakers coming from throughout the USA, Canada and from as far away as Vietnam and Israel.

After two days of screenings, the event will culminate with the awards ceremony on November 8th where student awards will be announced.  Michael Greenspan will be honored with the Inspiration Award for his achievements since winning an award for his film “The Legend of Razorback” at the very first ISFFH in 2003. Michael is currently directing the feature film “Wrecked,” starring Adrien Brody.
