Free Admission to the Festival Event.

We have a deal to send your movie, with your permission if yours is selected, with our agent to major movie markets, such as Cannes and the American Film Market.

Prizes! We would like to welcome our returning sponsor Jungle Software to The Brainwash Movie Festival. We will be presenting Jungle software to ALL 6 of our AWARD WINNERS this year, to help with future movie productions!

Gorilla Standard, Gorilla Student, and Story-O are production software especially designed for independent filmmakers. Gorilla handles budgeting, scheduling, cast, crew, locations, accounting, editing notes, and even film festival submissions. Story-O allows you to outline your story in broad strokes, jot down raw notes and ideas, flesh out details and then put it all in story order when you’re ready. Find out more at the Jungle Software website.
