The Los Angeles Lift-Off Film Festival is a component of the Lift-Off Global Network, dedicated to celebrating American and International independent cinema. The festival showcases films of various lengths, genres, nationalities, and styles, with screenings held both online and at prestigious locations such as Raleigh Studios in Hollywood. It aims to support grassroots filmmakers by providing a platform for their work, offering networking opportunities, and facilitating connections with industry professionals. Winning films, often determined by audience choice, can gain automatic official selections at other Lift-Off Film Festivals worldwide and may be presented at major film markets like AFM, Cannes, and EFM to aid in distribution.
