Natchitoches has a long and intimate history with American cinema. The Cane River film festival represents the latest chapter in that history and we are as diverse as the community that we represent.
Our mission is to showcase, nurture, and support the emerging creative International student and independent filmmakers stories. We want to share their films with an audience, seek opportunities for distribution and celebrate their achievement in telling their story that they want to tell.
The Cane River film festival is not just a film festival it's an experience.
The Cane River Film Festival gives International students and independent filmmakers an opportunity to network with Producers, Directors, Agents, Politicians and Sponsors in this fall's lineup making this event more interactive and engaging.
