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.

At one point during the Selma voting rights movement, there were more African Americans in jail than there were on the voting rolls. Students and teachers, together with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), joined with Dallas County residents to organize the community around voter registration. They used nonviolence to fight violent oppression, and Selma: The Bridge to the Ballot tells the story of how African Americans in the South won the right to fully participate in our democracy from these young activists’ point of view.
