About Solstice Film Festival
The Solstice Film Festival and Board of Directors represents the spirit of our community and a celebration of filmmaking talent and
the art of cinema from around the world. SFF will offer a varied slate of films, special events and educational initiatives, presenting
Minnesota with an engaging cultural event for both the local population and visitors to the Twin Cities.
Solstice Film Festival Founder and Executive Director, Devin
Halden, dreamt about a film festival that not only showcased
incredible movies featuring the film industries up and coming
talent, but he also wanted to transform downtown St. Paul, MN
into a hub of entertainment, allowing the festival goer to
experience the lifestyle of paparazzi and movie stars. The Red
Carpet will be rolled out and the flash bulbs will be popping
when Minnesota gives Tinsel Town a run for it's money!
Our Grand Venue for 2009, is located in the booming entertainment hub of
Uptown Minneapolis, MN. The Suburban World Theatre's location offers a
great opportunity for festival attendees to enjoy the festival in the heart of the
city and just a short jaunt from Lake Calhoun.
The festival's special events are a popular element to our very balanced
event. With the addition of live music and benefit concerts to the festival
program, Solstice Film Festival has truly become a champion of the creative
arts.
Recognized every year as one of the top festivals for programing, SFF
continued building on the reputation with bringing light several World
Premiers, including "Believers" from award winning filmmaker Daniel Myrick
(Blair Witch Project).
We also pride ourselves in going the extra mile for all of our films in programming. With distribution reps from major studio
labels in attendance for the event, films in our programming are screened for many influential individuals who can bring your film
to the next level.
Local, national and international exposure is brought to Solstice Film Festival each year. All media eyes will be on us again as
everyone waits to see what we have planned for 2010.
SEE YOU THERE!
