RIFF ’09

An important decision for the Rappahannock Independent Film Festival was made recently. It was the decision to move forward with a 2009 festival. Despite all of the blood, sweat, and tears we lost during the 2008 festival, we feel like it was all worth it and we’re willing to do it again.

The 2009 festival will take place August 27-30 at a brand new venue! We’ll announce the new location soon, but you can probably find it on your own if you do a little digging… or reading (hint)… reading for free (okay, I’m going to stop there).

Just like last year, we will need the support of the community. Our Call for Entries begins on November 27, 2008, which is… well, tomorrow. So stay tuned for those details. If you are interested in volunteering, shoot an email to, and if you want to help us with sponsorship, you can email

We’re looking forward to this year’s festival and we hope you are too! As always, the website will be the best place to get the latest information.
