All of New Mexico’s aspiring and established filmmakers are invited to submit a film for consideration in the Madrid Film Festival. In the spring of 2025, the 8th Annual Festival will begin accepting short films (fifteen minutes or less) which were created over the past year in New Mexico.
The festival is proud to offer monetary prizes: $500 cash awarded to the film that wins the Festival’s grand prize, Le Palme d’Coal, sponsored by Beer Creek Brewing Company. There is also a $500 cash awarded to the film that wins the best local Madrid film prize, the “Oscar” Huber, sponsored by the Mine Shaft Tavern.
The screening of the Seventh Annual Madrid Film Festival will be in September 13-15, 2024, at the Engine House Theater in Madrid.
