This year, we&rsquo;ll welcome more than 6,000 attendees for nearly 100 films, 30 screenings, and five special events across Brooklyn. As we finalize this year&rsquo;s festival, we&rsquo;re raising $40,000 to help bridge the remaining funding gap and support the many costs involved in producing Festival Week. Every contribution brings us closer to delivering an ambitious and memorable 19th edition.

Our alumni include Oscar, Emmy, BAFTA, and Pulitzer Prize winners who received early recognition and support from the festival. This year&rsquo;s program will feature nearly 100 films, 30 screenings, five special events, a central festival hub, filmmaker portraits, industry conversations, and our annual Awards Ceremony. Producing a five-day festival of this scale requires support from many sources. Sponsorships, grants, ticket sales, and other revenue cover only a portion of the total cost.
