Have an idea for a 10 minutes short film Drama or Documentary? Film it, upload it to YouTube and submit it to the Iowa Short Film and Script-Writing Contest. Or if you’re not an aspiring director, write the script and submit it to the film festival – two winning scripts will be translated to film by experienced directors.

FairfieldVoice will be featuring entries submitted to YouTube. Tag your entries with “fairfieldfilmfest” and then insert the link to your video in the comments section below.
