AMERICAN CINEMATIC EXPERIENCE 2009
ACCEPTING ENTRIES FEB 17 - MAY 18

Throughout history, American film has raised the bar in a broad spectrum of elements, including technology, performance, style, innovation and experimentation. While filmmakers all across the globe continue to stun audiences with incredible cinematic masterpieces, our primary focus is on American-made works. From the backyard to the backlot, this country has harvested some of the most talented visionaries and storytellers known to man. ACEFEST (formerly known as "ACE Film Festival") is an annual celebration of these artists of the past, present and future.

By providing a nurturing forum for domestic film and video, we magnify the focus on this country's creative voice. There is no better time than now for Americans to express themselves and communicate, through their art, on an international level. ACEFEST sets out to embrace those who share their thoughts, dreams, opinions, fears and ideas through the eye of the lens.

Now in its third year, ACEFEST has caught the attention of countless filmmakers, artists, publications, companies and supporters. The annual celebration in New York City is considered to be one of the most anticipated events on the industry calendar, bringing together not only people from all over the United States, but all corners of the globe as well.

Success Story: Little Chenier


Several films from our 2007 program (many of which premiered at ACE Fest) have gone on to achieve varying levels of success from international distribution deals to finishing funds and major studio options. Today, we'd like to highlight Little Chenier, winner of Best Feature at ACE Film Festival 2007. Bethany Ashton Wolf's feature directoral debut made its first East Coast appearance at ACE and continues to wow audiences all over the festival circuit. The Cajun story about two brothers living in the bayous of Louisiana has just recently obtained a limited theatrical run, nation-wide! If you missed this incredible film at ACE Fest 2007, be sure to check out the trailer HERE and keep an eye out for Little Chenier at a theater near you!
