MISSION & OBJECTIVE
The Hell's Half Mile Film & Music Festival (HHM) is the perfect mix of independent film and live indie music. Still under the radar, but we’re starting to make an impact with our guests.
"I don't remember much of my two years going to Hell's Half Mile. That's how much fun I had." – Rider Strong, “Cabin Fever” and two time guest.
Our taste is eclectic, everything from quirky comedies to hard hitting documentaries to emotional drama. Our goal is to find "the little film that could" -- a bunch of them actually -- and bring the filmmakers together to take over Bay City, MI. Our primary concern is community, and the filmmakers who attend our long weekend walk away with lifelong friends and future collaborators.
"I’ve been to SXSW several times, San Francisco, a bunch of smaller festivals all over the U.S. It [Hell’s Half Mile] feels like the real deal. It’s people who genuinely love film, love the independent film community. The quality and lineup is incredible” – Ashley Spillers "Arlo and Julie"
Over the last ten years over 100 directors, producers, screenwriters and actors have joined our growing audience. We provide travel and accommodations to a select number of filmmakers, plus all-access passes and catered receptions. All of our venues are within a few block radius and hotels are within walking distance, making it super easy to get around. Visit hhmfest.com for links to the venues and video recaps of previous festivals. We schedule events to help you with other filmmakers, musicians, movie fans, and our supportive local community. Our goal is to provide you with a professional, casual and fun experience during your stay with us, including unique outings that give you a taste of the local flavor. It’s the least we can do in return for providing our festival-goers with great independent cinema.
Once your festival experience ends, Hell’s Half Mile looks to the future. HHM alumni receive fee waivers for future projects and all-access passes for subsequent year’s festivals, whether you have a film in our program or not. We continue to support alumni projects through social media and newsletters celebrating victories and other milestones through our growing network of filmmakers and film lovers.
“Hell's Half Mile gives me warm feelings in my heart. The warm feeling in my pants is possibly unrelated. It’s worth every minute and it's the kind of festival that you make movies for.” – Kenny Stevenson, writer and actor, "Love, Sex and Missed Connections".
Guests are not left alone to fend for themselves amidst our rabid audiences and interested community members. Programmers and organizers are ever present and ready with introductions, recommendations and the occasional swift exit from oversharers. Bay City nights are filled with raw rock and roll sounds giving us the moniker of “little Detroit”, especially into the wee hours at super-secret-after-parties. Daytime in Bay City is cool Fall days with sunny riverside strolls or bike rides past historic lumber baron mansions. Or, there are always plenty of great films to watch. Its up to you!
Filmmakers are also encouraged to participate in panel discussions, receptions and other events. We continue to foster student and local filmmaking, which provides opportunities for guest filmmakers to present a workshop or lecture focused on a specific topic or specialty. Other guests are invited to screen our student and local short films and give constructive feedback to the filmmakers. This type of mentoring helps to strengthen local filmmaking and continue our relationships with area universities.
Hell’s Half Mile, ranked 27th in Moviemaker Magazine’s Top 25 Coolest Film Festivals of 2016. Just a prediction.
ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
After ten years, Hell’s Half Mile organizers continue to strive to be an innovative festival for genuinely independent films and original music. This festival is about connecting the filmmaker and the festival-goer. Period. Well, and parties too.
In addition to relentless promotion of films, Hell’s Half Mile recognizes and rewards films with jury, programmer and audience awards, some with prizes. Prizes include a cash prize of $1000 for the Grand Jury Award, as well as other valued prizes. Grand Jury Winners include the controversial “Lamb” (2015), the Icelandic “Metalhead” (2014), and the acclaimed documentary "Remote Area Medical" (2013). Past jurors include Damien Chazelle (Whiplash), Adam Busch (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Adam Schartoff (Filmwax Radio), Jasmine McGlade (Maria My Love), Joey Kern (“Super Troopers”), Geoff Marslett (Loves Her Gun), WAW Parker (Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench), Rider Strong (Cabin Fever), Leslie Raymond (Ann Arbor Film Festival), Mark Covino (A Band Called Death), Michael Dunaway (Paste Magazine), Joel Potrykus (Buzzard) and Jeff Meyers (Metro Times).
Each year we screen great narrative films, like the Midwest Premiere of Terry McMahon’s “Patrick’s Day” jury award winner for Best Feature at the 2014 Woodstock Film Festival, and winner of the Hell’s Half Mile jury award for Best Screenplay. Quirky comedies like James Westby’s “Rid of Me” and Neil LaBute’s “Dirty Weekend” have been big hits with HHM audiences. Co-director Mark Covino attended with the international hit "A Band Called Death" which won the HHM "Fest Best" award. Rider Strong has been a guest at HHM with four amazing films over two years, including “The Dungeon Master,” written and directed with his brother Shiloh and winner of the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival Best (Online) Short Film. Visit hhmfest.com for complete lists of all films presented.
Some of the great music we’ve had over the years connects our film and music events. Matt Pond PA joined us at HHM in 2010. This same year, screening at the festival was “Lebanon PA,” with original score by Matt Pond and Chris Hansen of Matt Pond PA. Another great band that performed at HHM in 2011 was The One AM Radio, led by Hrishikesh Hirway who also did the original music for the 2012 feature film “Save the Date.” Visit hhmfest.com for lists and links of previous music performers.
HHM, a partnership with the Bay Arts Council, utilizes a unique mix of venues including Bay City’s historic Mayan themed State Theatre, the Delta College Planetarium, and a turn-of-the-century red sandstone former Masonic Temple, saved from demolition by the Bay Arts Council. Likewise, the Hell’s Half Mile programmers are looking for the right mix of creative and challenging works, including those from underserved segments of the film community, to bring to our seriously appreciative audiences. We hope you’ll consider us.
What's with the name?
In the late 1800's, a stretch of Bay City's riverfront was lined with raucous saloons and two-bit hotels where turn-of-the-century loggers and shipmen would go to blow off steam and take in more than a little local color. This strip was known to locals as Hell's Half Mile. "'Hell's Half Mile' was the strip of waterfront where lumberjacks used to go boozing and whoring. Now, a bunch of us from Hollywood go there for a film festival. Not much has changed." – Rider Strong
Time has passed, but the same rough-and-tumble spirit of the day is reborn in the Hell's Half Mile Film & Music Festival. Today, the city boasts a beautiful downtown riverfront with boutiques, restaurants, theatres, pubs, hotel accommodations and other points of interest....a state of the art planetarium, art galleries, a thriving business community, and an active shipping lane for Great Lakes freighters...Downtown Bay City is alive with activity.
From October 14th to October 20th, 2019, Portland won't just be the city of roses—it'll be the city of film. All for the love of film, our weeklong event is jam-packed with networking, workshops, guest speakers, film premieres, financing talks, director Q&As and more. There's a reason Portland is different. Come be a part of what MovieMaker Magazine calls, "one of the coolest film festivals in the world."
Past attendees and alumni of the film festival include Aisha Tyler, Mario Van Peebles, Joe Dante, Sam Hamm, Mark Boone Junior, Eli Roth, Justin Long, Haley Joel Osment, Abby Elliott, Chris Williams, Chuck Palahniuk, Jason Mamoa, Doug Benson, Sally Kirkland, Joshua McDermitt, Wendy Froud, Brian Froud, Toby Froud, Vanna White, Penny Lane, Chelsea Cain, Daniel Wilson, Chelsey Reist, Isaac Feder, James Franco, Lorenza Izzo, Matt Walsh, Susan Sarandon, Michael Tully, Ryan Murdock, Kelly Reichardt, Kris Kaczor, Bryan Storkel, Leah Warshawski, Daryl Hannah, Vivian Norris, Karney Hatch, Jon Matthews, Dana Nachman, Mitchell Jackson, John Jeffcoat, Shawn Telford, Leah Meyerhoff, Mark Raso, David Zellner, Bradley King and more.

El Festival Internacional de Cortometrajes de Torrelavega, organizado por la Concejalía de Cultura de su Ayuntamiento, nació en la primavera del año 2000 con la entrada del nuevo siglo.
Es muy probable que Torrelavega sea una de las pocas ciudades españolas que pueda enorgullecerse de ser precursora en este mundillo, ya que hablar de cine, festivales internacionales, encuentro de realizadores e intercambio de conocimientos no resulta novedoso en esta ciudad. Antes de la proliferación de certámenes y festivales de cortometrajes en nuestro país, Torrelavega vivió más de veinte ediciones del Festival de Cine de Sniace, precursor en España del cine independiente y de iniciativas similares. Esto generó el nacimiento de realizadores que divulgaron el nombre de Torrelavega en diferentes festivales tanto nacionales como internacionales, consiguiendo multitud de premios. Curiosamente, el crecimiento de la ciudad, el dinamismo sociocultural y nuevos hábitos la dejaron sin salas cinematográficas y esa necesidad cultural del cine, los valores de una nueva generación y la vocación cinematográfica de siempre hicieron que naciera este festival.
Some idea of the journey on foot to explore the world and its mythical roads , respecting nature and people.
This festival is an opportunity to share our passion and spirit of adventure travel.
EL Certamen Internacional de Cortos “Ciudad de Soria” (Soria International Short Film Fest - SOIFF), tiene como objetivo promover el cortometraje como medio de expresión audiovisual, contribuyendo a su reconocimiento, difusión y valorándolo como medio esencial de trasmisión de la cultura. Considerándolo en todo momento CINE con mayúsculas y tomando este formato como parte fundamental e imprescindible del CINE
El festival tiene un carácter internacional y todos los autores con películas que cumplan con otras propuestas pueden participar. Las películas seleccionadas para la competición serán juzgadas en dos categorías:
1. RECETA DE FILM - una especie de documental que debe mostrar imágenes completas y/o instrucciones de texto para la preparación de creaciones culinarias (comidas, bebidas o desiertos), incluyendo información sobre ingredientes requeridos y secuencia de trabajo. En base a esos, después de ver la película uno debe ser capaz de preparar la receta.
2. CATEGORÍA ABIERTA - una película que debe tematizar o representar contenido relacionado con alimentos y/o bebidas.
La duración de las películas individuales presentadas está limitada a 15 minutos.

SOBRE EL FESTIVAL
El Festival Internacional de Cine Red Rock. El Red Rock Film Festival se formó en 2007 en el sur de Utah y rápidamente se convirtió en un festival reconocido internacionalmente con jueces galardonados y un riguroso proceso de preselección. Formó parte de la lista de la revista MovieMaker de los «mejores festivales que merecen la cuota de inscripción» tanto en 2009 como en 2013.
SELECCIÓN DE PELÍCULAS DEMOCRÁTICAS
Todas las películas son revisadas por miembros de nuestro comité de preestreno y puntuadas según los valores de dirección, guion, acción/talento, valores de producción y valores de posproducción. Locales o internacionales, amigas o desconocidas, bonitas o sencillas, famosas o no: todas las películas reciben el mismo trato y se someten a la misma selección democrática.
DEMOGRÁFICO
El grupo demográfico está bien educado y está compuesto principalmente por personas con el nido vacío, estudiantes universitarios y personas mayores. El festival también tiene como objetivo encontrar nuevas películas para los más sabios, así como películas de calidad para jóvenes, películas deportivas y películas con un mensaje.
GÉNERO
Se consideran todos los géneros. Si bien los documentales han ocupado un lugar predominante en el Festival de Cine Red Rock, el público del festival suele elogiar la variedad y diversidad de películas seleccionadas para el festival de Utah. Se tienen en cuenta las películas de animación, arte, niños, comedia, documental, drama, experimental, ficción, narrativa, romance, deportes, estudiantes, terror, suspenso, misterio, música, vídeos musicales, temas bélicos, temas de guerra, asuntos de la mujer, familia y películas humanitarias. La diversidad cultural también es un punto culminante del festival; se explorarán culturas africanas, estadounidenses, asiáticas, europeas, indias, indígenas, isleñas, latinas, budistas, cristianas, hindúes, musulmanas, espirituales, yoguis y otras culturas filosóficas, gubernamentales, históricas y artísticas.
CONCURSO:
Se consideran todos los géneros, incluidos la animación, el documental, el experimental, la ficción, el vídeo musical y las películas hechas por estudiantes. El festival tiene varias categorías de competencia, incluidas subcategorías únicas de largometrajes y cortometrajes.
Los directores del programa también pueden seleccionar categorías adicionales según su propio criterio, según el número de inscripciones calificadas que se reciban.
TODA PELÍCULA MERECE UN HOGAR
Todo depende de cuánto nos guste una película y dónde la coloquemos. Solo queremos una película buena y original que muestre nuestra misión. Esperamos que algunas películas sean excelentes para estrenarlas en los cines, otras para la televisión, otras para el aula, para nuestra serie de películas o para un gran estreno. Para fomentar el espíritu independiente, Red Rock se esfuerza por encontrar un lugar para todas las películas que compitan. Esto le da al cineasta la oportunidad de dar a conocer su trabajo aunque no llegue a la final del festival. El festival también acoge un mercado de minipelículas, proyecciones especiales durante todo el año y también hacemos recomendaciones a otros festivales.
MERCADO CINEMATOGRÁFICO
El Utah Film Market es una pequeña sección del festival donde los cineastas y otros profesionales de la industria pueden ver sus películas por su cuenta en la biblioteca del festival o en proyecciones especiales de la industria que se ofrecen a finalistas seleccionados y otros favoritos del festival.
