The Best Shot Film Festival (BSFF) is unique in celebrating the best films and filmmakers that have not found success at any other festivals, in a live-screened and live-streamed event. No theme rules, no category restrictions, and any film can win a share of $3000 cash. All we want is your best filmmaking effort!
For this, our inaugural festival, submit your best films – from the 2025 calendar year, or from your back catalogue – for judging with clear criteria that appraises any type of film. Any genre, any style, and any length 10 minutes or under – Open (18+) and Student sections – and all finalists receive personalised feedback about their film!
We’ve all been there: you’ve made some amazing stuff, but it just hasn’t found the success you were hoping for.
That’s where we come in.
We’re all about showcasing and celebrating you, the filmmaker. Your craft, your style, your world – YOU!
This isn’t just your second shot, it’s your BEST SHOT!
