The Great Film Festival 2025

Welcome to the Second "The Great Film Festival" 2025! Building on the success of The Great Film Club, this festival will give filmmakers the chance to showcase their full-length and short works in a supportive, community-driven environment right in the heart of Hollywood.

The festival will be hosted at The Eastwood, a rapidly growing favorite theater among filmmakers in Hollywood. Known for its perfect blend of modern amenities and historical charm, The Eastwood offers a professional environment for film debuts. Its state-of-the-art projection and sound systems ensure an outstanding viewing experience, while the venue’s welcoming atmosphere is ideal for Q&As, panel discussions, and networking opportunities.
