Threadbare:
- films crafted with artistry, despite what seams may show through.
- genre conventions thoughtlessly reiterated, losing all context of their original meaning.

...so...

What's your Genre?

The Threadbare Mitten Film Festival is a celebration of genre cinema, here in the tell-tale heart of Michigan.

We won't push you into a box:
Horror, Sci-Fi, Contemporary Western, Neo-Noir, Absurdist Comedy, Fantasy, Splatterpunk, Magical Realism, Creature Feature, Psychological Thriller, Modern Samurai, ZomRomCom, Exploitation and Grindhouse, Road Trip, Documentary ad Mockumentary, Experimental and Non-Narrative... whatever weird quirks spark your camera rolling, we want to give you an exhibition home to exorcise them with an appreciative audience.
(and if being pushed into a box is your thing, well ok, show us that!)

As the Michigan Film and Digital Media Office says:
"Think of the Threadbare Mitten Film Festival as the anti-genre, but all-genre film festival, if that makes any sense. Truly a grassroots festival if ever there was one."
- June Newsletter 6/12/18

We do not categorize submissions by genre, only by duration. We will program screening blocks based upon the characteristics of the selected films themselves.

BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY Edition! New town, new time, same eclectic and eccentric programming. Lansing's REO Town takes over hosting our two-night-and-all-of-a-day festival, including screenings and at our festival's new home in the beautiful Robin Theatre and other venues, a Friday night Film.Craft.Beer VIP Party, and Filmmaker Q&As. Jury and Audience Awards will be presented during the festival.

More details to come as we negotiate with additional venues and partners for this year's festivities!

Located just off of Lansing's downtown core, REO Town represents the heart of creative revitalization and the artistic community. Saddleback BBQ, the REO Town Diner, Blue Owl Coffee, the REO Town Pub, Ellison Brewing, Sleepwalker Ales, along with an assortment of shops, are right here on Washington Avenue under the Three Stacks.

Exhibition Formats:

Films selected for the Threadbare Mitten Film Festival must provide exhibition copies to the festival coordinators at least 2 weeks prior to the festival dates.

Films selected for screening must provide a digital screener in standard .mp4 format or equivalent. If you are unable to establish an electronic transfer of an exhibition quality file to our staff, we ask you to please mail a flashdrive or SD card containing the file to our submission address.

At this point, we do not have venues scheduled for this year's Festival that require physical media for exhibition. If this changes, then upon notification of selection, we will inform you if we will require your film on a physical disc, compatible with standard disc players and deliverable to the submission address. It is your responsibility to confirm proper disc playback, or promptly notify us if you will not be able to produce a required Blu-Ray or DVD disc.

We reserve the option to reschedule your film or replace it with another selection if there are issues receiving adequate exhibition files or discs.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Filmmaker Feedback:

Please be aware that we offer personal, constructive feedback to filmmakers that are not selected. As filmmakers ourselves, we know how frustrating it can be to spend production dollars on festival submissions and only receive blank form rejections that give no indication of a given film's strengths or weaknesses, or whether it was just poor luck that your hard work simply didn't fit with a given year's programming. We aim to provide feedback on our own selection process and reasoning for your benefit, on a professional level. Just let us know when you submit your film if you are interested in hearing from our programmers, in case the unfortunate happens and we are unable to find a place for your work in our Festival.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Content:

While we will not impose content restrictions for submitted films, please consider the following:

1. We are not interested in purely pornographic material without narrative interest

2. We are not interested in exhibiting actual acts of real life violence or death
