In light of the current pandemic, we have decided to Host A Rebel Minded Festival 2020 as an online festival in which attendees can experience from the comfort of your home.
We would like to use this time to spotlight the work of independent creators to an audience who supports the independent culture arts and may find relief and conform in viewing work from others. We are looking to use independent culture arts as a way to rechannel our energy to not dwell on the negative and find inspiration and motivation from others to help us carry on.
ARMF online 2020 will take place August 17th. ARMF Film will kick off the festival on day 1. We will be streaming films all day for free online, with the option for viewers to live chat while watching as well as make a donation or purchase merch or content from the filmmaker.
After the festival Filmmakers can then choose to take them down, or continue streaming the content, for a length agreed upon by both parties, on RMTV by signing a license agreement. Which states that you own all the rights to the work and that you are allowing us to stream it on a non-exclusive basis.

We’re currently reviewing all content and will notify the finalists as soon as a decision has been made.
