Cambria Film Festival

Welcome to Cambria! Celebrating our 10th year, the Cambria Film Festival is excited to continue to showcase the best in independent cinema, including feature, short, student, and genre films from all around the world. Nestled on the central coast of California halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, Cambria is a unique, relaxed, and intimate seaside getaway destination with a deep fondness for the arts. With a colorful film and entertainment history, “Cinema by the Sea” is a no-brainer! Our love of film knows no bounds, and CFF aims to celebrate the art of independent filmmaking and storytelling, accepting submissions from all genres for consideration in our festival. For nine years, our selections have kept our dedicated audience coming back year after year. In addition to screenings, CFF offers industry workshops, seminars, panels, parties, and special engagements to create an immersive and varied experience for film lovers and filmmakers alike. Filmmakers can expect to be welcomed with open arms not only by our festival but by our film-loving community as well! Hear from the filmmakers in their own words in the reviews below!
