Austin Film Festival

Be among the first to watch this season’s next big box-office hits at the largest film festival in Austin, where talented directors, producers, actors and screenwriters descend upon the city for a week of screenings, panels and surprises at multiple venues (including the Paramount Theatre, the Hideout Theatre, the Driskill Hotel, the State Theatre and more). Get sneak peeks at films like An Ordinary Man starring Ben Kingsley, or Please Stand By starring Dakota Fanning and Toni Collette, followed by informative Q&A sessions with cast members and filmmakers. The Writers Conference takes place the first four days of the festival and features over 175 panels, workshops, roundtables and pitch sessions. A complete list of programming will be announced in late September.
