FELTcinema II: Ace Collab. CALLOUT

Are you an indie filmmaker or video artist? If so, keep reading.

FELTcinema is an event dedicated to celebrating true independent and experimental artists and filmmakers by providing them with the opportunity to showcase their work on the big screen, something many artists rarely get.

This year, we are teaming up with ACE Gallery to further support the independent filmmaking and video art community. More details about this collaboration will be revealed at a later date.

The screening will be hosted at The Mercury Cinema and ACE on the 1st of August 2026. Selected artists will present their works and have the option to speak about their work for up to five minutes afterward (encouraged but not mandatory).
