Connecting films to audiences

We are a non-profit startup working to create the most comprehensive database of independent films and film festivals, connecting filmmakers with fans and industry leaders. Think IMDb, but exclusively for festival films - with a "Where to Watch" link if the film is already out, and a "Get Notified" button if the film is not yet available for streaming.

Filmmaker, unlock your film's full potential!

During festival screenings, films experience their peak public interest — a time when audience engagement and excitement are at their highest.

Yet, this significant opportunity for attention often remains unexplored, as films typically make their online debut long after their festival appearances.

It’s not just about lost views; it’s about missing out on building a lasting relationship with your audience, the support and engagement that could fuel your next projects.

Vurchel ensures your audience's interest is retained. We alert your fans when the film is ready to stream, maintaining momentum from festivals for wider reach and engagement. With Vurchel, your film's buzz isn't just preserved — it's amplified.

2026

The DC Adventure Film Festival is the premiere East Coast film festival dedicated to adventure and action sports films from around the world. Every day is a new adventure! The annual DC Adventure Film Festival (DCAFF) brings the world’s best adventure and action sports films, athletes, and speakers to the East Coast and our Nation’s Capital. For two days, the Festival aims to inspire adventure across all generations and cultures. Through our events and the power of film, we encourage people to take part in outdoor activity and celebrate the outdoor experience. The DC Adventure Film Festival serves as a gathering for the adventure and action sports tribe. Whether you’re a filmmaker, film buff, armchair adventurer, weekend warrior, or pro athlete, the Festival provides something for everyone. We accept and showcase feature length and short films from all genres of adventure and actions sports. This is what makes us unique. From the mountains to the sea, and through the urban landscapes in between, our films highlight people experiencing the natural and man-made landscapes of our planet. We focus on films that leave our audiences with an itch to get outside and push their own limits! The Festival also celebrates the adventurous landscapes, people, and films from the Nation’s Capital and surrounding area. Our regional award category (250 Mile Club) showcases films that feature the Mid-Atlantic. The category offers amateur- and pro-filmmakers the chance to screen their films to local crowds while highlighting the area’s adventure and action sports. Not only do we provide awards to winning filmmakers, our judging committee will also award Adventurer of the Festival to recognize the best actor, athlete, or person who embodies the spirit of adventure. After our flagship event, the DC Adventure Film Festival film tour will hit the road starting in the East Coast. We hope to inspire and leave beneficial lasting memories to encourage people to get outside and make their own adventure. Please visit www.dcaff.org for more information.
