The Kansas City Underground Film Festival (KCUFF) is an independent film festival dedicated to showcasing unique and underappreciated films from around the world to the Kansas City community. It emphasizes low-budget or no-budget features and short films across all genres, accepting submissions regardless of completion date or premiere status. The festival prides itself on being financially accessible, offering free admission to its screenings, and aims to provide a welcoming platform for filmmakers to screen their work. Directed by Willy Evans, KCUFF values creativity, originality, and distinctive voices in cinema, often holding its events at the Charlotte Street Foundation.
