ABOUT US #IndieFilmFete has been created in partnership with Jess Collett, Kiriem Bello and Tolu Stedford. We are 3 businesswomen with backgrounds in acting, writing, producing, event planning and finance. Our patrons Ellen Thomas and Greta Mendez have over 50 years of experience in the entertainment industry. As filmmakers, we wanted to create an event that celebrates filmmakers on all levels making it a diverse and accessible event. We also wanted to make our event a fun and safe space for our audience to network, grow and be inspired which is why we have our small stallholders in attendance to break the ice and enlighten you with their products and services. Successful applicants will have their films screened at the exclusive Streatham Space Project which will be attended by industry professionals and promoted in many of the arts promotional materials. PLEASE NOTE It is with deep regret that we must inform you that the event on the 9th of May 2020 will be postponed. We will continue to accept film submissions and the judging process is going ahead as planned. The world is going through a very uncertain period, and in light of the current pandemic COVID -19 threat, it is imperative to protect the health and well-being of the Creative Alliance community and the country as a whole. We have therefore decided to follow government advice and hold the final screening of selected films next year. In light of this, we are happy to announce our new event date is 9th October 2021 where we look forward to celebrating your work and treating you at our exclusive event. Please be sure to keep a note of the new date and invite your friends along too.
