The Rochester Teen Film Festival is an annual celebration of youth filmmakers that evolved from the Young Filmmakers Competition in the Rochester High Falls International Film Festival. The purpose of the festival is to honor the work of urban, suburban and rural teenagers and give them an opportunity to share their stories with each other and the Greater Rochester Community. All submissions will be judged by a jury and finalists will be selected to have their films shown at the Little Theatre on August 4th.
