On April 24, 2024, Spring2ACTion, the annual online fundraising event for Alexandria charities will take place. As an all-volunteer organization, the Alexandria Film Festival (AFF) relies on the support of our community to fund all of our programs. That means the AFF would literally be impossible without you! 

ALEXANDRIA, VA – The Alexandria Film Festival has teamed up with Artomatic to present a dozen short and feature-length films from its 2023 program during Artomatic’s exhibition (March 8 - April 28) at 2100 M Street in Washington, D.C.

Today, the Alexandria Film Festival kicked off its effort to seek film submissions for its November 7-10 international festival. Filmmakers are invited to submit short and feature films of any genre through FilmFreeway, an online portal which provides a detailed description of the festival and reviews by filmmakers who’ve attended in the past. 

ALEXANDRIA, VA – In honor of Black History Month, the Alexandria Film Festival will present Bloodlines of the Slave Trade, a documentary that examines the lives of two people whose only connection is a genetic link to two notorious Alexandria-based slave traders of the 1830s. 

ALEXANDRIA, VA – The Alexandria Film Festival concluded its three-day program yesterday with the announcement of 12 films that received festival awards…

We are looking forward to seeing you at this weekend's festival. When screening 60 films in multiple locations technical issues often arise and they have. Therefore, we have had to make some program changes that may affect the showcases at AMC Hoffman you purchased tickets for. We hope you won't find it necessary to request a refund, but if that's the case, please complete our contact form and insert "Ticket Refund" in the subject line. We're terribly sorry for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
