The inaugural Hollywood International Film Festival, organized by the non-profit organization Hummingbird Art and Culture Foundation LTD., is set to take place on April 11-13, 2025. This festival is dedicated to celebrating the art of filmmaking and recognizing the achievements of filmmakers from around the globe. Our mission is to provide international filmmakers with a platform to showcase outstanding examples of both World and American cinema.
As part of the festival, we will be presenting the prestigious Hummingbird Art and Culture Foundation Awards. The festival will screen and honor exceptional films by students, emerging auteurs, and established masters, including independent, foreign, and experimental films. The selection process will emphasize artistic merit, cultural significance, and social relevance, with a lineup that includes both new releases and timeless classics.
A highlight of the festival will be the highly anticipated award ceremony, where the best films and filmmakers will be celebrated. Awards will be presented across various categories, such as Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor/Actress, and more. A distinguished panel of judges—comprising filmmakers, veteran actors, musicians, film critics, and industry experts—will determine the award recipients.
Attending the Hollywood International Film Festival promises to be a captivating and enriching experience for both film enthusiasts and professionals. The event will offer opportunities to discover emerging talent, engage in thought-provoking discussions, and celebrate the profound impact of cinema in moving, inspiring, and entertaining audiences.
In addition to honoring winning films, the festival will also recognize deserving projects that exhibit outstanding efforts, quality, and significance in independent filmmaking, even if they do not receive an award. This inclusive approach aims to provide recognition and support to independent filmmakers and the artists involved in creating art house films.
