The annual screenings of LA Art Film Fest at the Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute

Dive with the LA Art Film Fest into the captivating history and defining characteristics of arthouse films, a genre that continues to challenge, inspire, and reshape our understanding of cinema.



An arthouse film, also known as art cinema, is a type of movie that strays from the mainstream commercial path to create a unique artistic expression. These films are typically characterized by their serious, often experimental nature, prioritizing directorial creativity and artistic vision over mass-market appeal.



They tend to target niche audiences, offering depth, complexity, and unconventional narrative structures. Arthouse films provide a distinctive perspective, challenging traditional cinematic norms while pushing the boundaries of storytelling and visual aesthetics. LA Art Film Fest is an IMDb qualifying competition and an annual screening event with live screenings in LA. Every year, the finalists of the festival are screened in the live events.



The fest is devoted to the discovery, promotion and screening of art films of all genres from all over the world. The competition will award and recognize film projects and artists working on a variety of genres in drama, documentary, animation, experimental, etc. The intention of the fest is to support, discover, promote and screen emerging and established names in the film industry. The festival team also announced the latest winners of the competition.
