 Welcome to the Flyway
Film Festival website.
As part of the
Lake Pepin
Art & Design Center, the Flyway Film Festival's
mission is to support the work of emerging film artists, as well as
working professionals. As such, there is no entry fee for our festival,
and we've attempted to keep the submission process as simple as possible
hoping to give more filmmakers access to have their work screened in front
of an engaged competition jury and a responsive audience.

Deadline is July 15, 2008
A bit about us…
We are located approximately 90 minutes southeast from downtown
Minneapolis on the banks of a wide spot on the Mississippi River called
Lake Pepin. Pepin, Wisconsin and the surrounding communities have become
home to many artists, artisans and craftspeople that have relocated here
from areas like Minneapolis, Chicago and other big cities. In many ways we
are a growing and burgeoning arts community.
Over the past two years we've been screening foreign and independently
produced films at our center on a regular basis and have played host to
several filmmakers including Ali Selim- screening his film "Sweet Land"
along with the requisite Q&A and such. During these past events all of the
filmmakers we've hosted, without exception have encouraged to hold a film
festival…and thus Flyway Film Festival was born.
We'd love to hear from you, if you are a filmmaker, film lover, or would
like to pledge you support- Please contact us for further information at
.
The event will be held in
Pepin, Wisconsin...spend
a night, a weekend, a lifetime.
