Festival Description:

For over three decades the Telluride Film Festival has been an intense four-day Labor Day weekend celebration commemorating the art of filmmaking in all its forms - honoring the cinemas enduring masters, and illuminating emerging talents. Championing the rare, the unknown, the unconventional. Bringing the best new works by the worlds finest directors and the latest in independent and international cinema to a tiny mountain town at a breathtaking 9,000 feet up in the heart of the gorgeous Colorado Rockies. Entry in the Festival is open to professional and nonprofessional filmmakers working in all aesthetic disciplines - documentary, narrative, animation, experimental, features and shorts, of all styles and lengths are eligible for consideration. Feature length works must have had no public exposure before the Labor Day event.
