Festival Screening coming October 22 – 25, 2026.
Every niche category at Luna Lumen has a director who specializes in it — so the feedback you get back is targeted, not generic.
Every category winner now receives the exclusive Luna Laurel Award, plus a year of free access to festival workshops.
No waiting on an email. Winners are revealed live, one category at a time — with the jury's own words on why each film won, the moment it happens.
Four days of selected films, screened live in scheduled matinee and evening blocks at 3pm and 10pm EST — a real festival experience, streamed like nothing else in independent film.
A look at past winners and festival moments.
We don't hand back generic "constructive criticism." Feedback arrives within one week of submittal, and you're free to edit your film after submitting — so early entries can use notes before their final cut.
Winning films screen on our OTT platform and get networked through IMDb and AFM for real industry exposure.
