>> Filmmaker responses


"In its first year, the Grand Rapids Film Festival has accomplished what many 10 year festivals have yet to obtain in its presentation, coordination, treatment of filmmakers, awards and sponsorships. This festival is on track to be the next nationally recognized festival known for introducing and celebrating great films that reflect the core values of middle America."

- Bobby Downes, Producer, Downes Brothers Entertainment (Like Dandelion Dust)
