The Saint Augustine Film Festival is organized by Gregory von Hausch, the CEO of the acclaimed Ft. Lauderdale International Film Festival. Films will include dramas, comedies, and documentaries from all over the world, as well as films from independent U.S. filmmakers.
“We are so excited to be screening films in beautiful downtown St. Augustine during Nights of Lights,” said von Hausch.
The Saint Augustine Film Festival has a reputation for featuring films that aren’t usually available in North Florida. The films chosen are created by talented independent filmmakers from around the globe.
The Saint Augustine Film Festival will introduce its new mascot, Film Buddy, at the St. Augustine Christmas Parade on December 3 beginning at 9 AM along San Marco Avenue in St. Augustine. As the SAFF ambassador, Film Buddy will be on a mission to invite locals and visitors to attend the film festival. Spectators should arrive early to find their spot along the parade route.
Also new this year, a high school students in St. Johns County are invited to submit their short films. Entries should be no longer than 2 minutes. The deadline is January 5. Email your film as an MP4 or MOV file to Dennis@FLIFF.com
Volunteers are needed to help at all screenings. To volunteer, contact Leslie Lacika at leslacika1@gmail.com to volunteer for the 2023 festival. An orientation session will be held prior to the festival where volunteers will get an official festival crew T-shirt and receive free tickets to attend films playing at Lewis Auditorium for those who commit to at least two four-hour shifts over the weekend.
