Our festival started in 2021 as an online festival for 4 days. Thursday-Sunday) We are a unique, free spirited festival. Our purpose is to display good, solid and creative filmmaking. When judging what makes the festival there's a combination of things we look for. We look for creativity, uniqueness and overall quality of the film work. We aren't looking for what we expect. Founder/Director, Leisa Coffman says, "I love everything filmmaking embodies and proud of being a filmmaker and proud that I built something to lift up my peers who have the same passion. I believe in giving back and this is why LLFF exists."
