Come join us at the South Dakota Film Festival (SDFF) and experience the magic of cinema on the big screen! We invite all filmmakers to participate in this annual event and showcase their talent. Founded in 2007, our goal is to showcase the best films submitted and to highlight films from the Great Plains region. 
As a non-profit organization, SDFF relies on the support of our community. Your contributions help us cover operational costs, provide resources for filmmakers, and create an unforgettable experience for audiences. With your help, we can continue to foster creativity, encourage local talent, and promote the art of storytelling through film.
The 19th annual South Dakota Film Festival will take place in September 2025 at the historic Capitol Theatre in Aberdeen, South Dakota. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to watch amazing films, participate in engaging discussions, and connect with fellow film enthusiasts. Together, we can ensure that the magic of cinema continues to thrive in our region. See you there!
