Georgia Student Film Showcase
November 14th – November 15th, 2026
The GSFS is a two-day festival with a mission to celebrate the innovative and ground breaking work of Georgia film students. We recognize the struggle of young artists to get their work seen on a larger scale, and understand that Georgia offers a unique and diverse community of young artists whose creative visions are often overlooked by traditional festivals. We hope the Metro Atlanta community will come out and support these brilliant young artists.
With programming blocks dedicated to Animation, Action, Comedy, Drama, Sci-Fi, Thriller, and Horror, there’s something for everyone!
