Our 2025 Festival

 The West Chester Film Festival presents an annual festival in West Chester, PA showing short films (30 minutes or less). These films come from filmmakers around the world, showcasing stories from diverse cultures, backgrounds, genres, and points of view. The West Chester Film Festival aims to celebrate the filmmaking experience as well as cultivate a festival that encourages a love of short film for all ages. We present a wide range of events, from a Young Filmmaker Festival to Filmmaking Workshops, Pop-Up Themed Blocks to Press Red Carpets, and much more during our three-day festival.
