Atlanta Spotlight Film Festival

Atlanta Spotlight Film Festival is an end-of-year showcase celebrating the strongest short films of the season. It’s not a discovery festival. Spotlight is built for films that have already had a festival run and are ready for one final screening and awards moment to close out the year.

Each December in Atlanta, selected short films screen in front of a live audience and take part in a focused awards event. Filmmakers attend, connect, and celebrate the work that stood out across the festival circuit.

If your film screened, placed, or received recognition during the year, Spotlight gives you one more opportunity to show it on the big screen and end the season on a high note.
