Our Story
Zed Fest Film Festival & Screenplay Competition was founded to encourage and support independent filmmakers and Screenwriters who work in the horror, suspense, science fiction, drama, action, adventure, and art house genres. In our competition we search for the Filmmakers and Screenwriters that embody the spirit of passionate movie making itself.
Zed Fest Film Festival Independent Spirit Filmmaker Award an Award that is inspired by Independent Film Making Pioneers. Like Director of Robot Monster Phil Tucker, Ida Lupino, John Waters,Elaine May, John Cassavetes, Penelope Spheeris,Jim Jarmusch.
These filmmakers followed their passion for filmmaking. They made films for the love of filmmaking as an art form. They used creativity and ingenuity in their filmmaking, and did not let their budget stand in the way of their projects. That is very inspirational to us and we hope to today's filmmakers.
