LOS FELIZ
'27

Where CINEMA LIVES

This is
Los Feliz.

Walt Disney drew Mickey a mile from here. James Dean shot Rebel Without a Cause in Griffith Park. La La Land captured the spirit of this place.

Los Feliz belongs to the ones who make things.
This festival is for them. It's for you.

What makes LFFF different

Win a festival.
Gain a mentor.

Not theory. Experience.

What to do next. What to avoid.

Because a win is a moment.

What comes after defines it.
