The 17th Annual Sidewalk Film Festival August 28-30
Sidewalk Film Festival is produced by the Alabama Moving Image Association, a federally recognized 501c3 non-profit organization with a mission to inspire, encourage and support filmgoers, the city of Birmingham and the filmmaking community. In addition to hosting the annual film festival, we host monthly networking and educational events, a monthly documentary series, short film and screenwriting competitions, manage a youth board and a variety of other year-round programs.
Tickets sales to our events cover approximately 1/3 of our annual operating cash budget, so we depend on corporate sponsors, grant-making organizations and individuals like you to survive. if you’d like to know more about supporting Sidewalk, please contact us at sidewalk@sidewalkfest.com.
The team behind The Rock-afire Explosion and Sidewalk audience award winner GLOW: The Story of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, return with an intimate story of rural youth and the 4-H fair. County Fair, Texas spends a year in the lives of four Texas teenagers, each of whom singlehandedly raises livestock with the hopes of winning college tuition at exhibition. A beautifully framed story, the film seemingly embraces nostalgia for another time, all while juxtaposing such with a glimpse of adolescence in the 21st century.
