The Black Rock Film Fest (formerly known as BRC International Film Festival) began as a collaboration between SF IndieFest and BUFF, the organizations responsible for the annual San Francisco Independent Film Festival, SF Documentary Film Fest, Another Hole in the Head, and the Boston Underground Film Festival. The organizers have collectively produced over 40 film festivals.

The second annual Black Rock Film Fest will be presented by the Boston Underground Film Festival and the Engine Theater. Our open air theater will showcase the best short films from around the world to an international audience of art and film lovers who descend on Burning Man each year for fun, art, and experience in the Nevada desert.

Black Rock Film Fest 2011 will kick off with a Red Carpet Opening Night Gala before the first program on Tuesday night and conclude with a Wrap Party after the last films on Friday night. Before every screening we will host a cockail hour at our Casting Couch Bar.

Black Rock City has a population of 50,000 for one week in August during Burning Man. The festival will screen films Tuesday through Friday nights at the festival. If you plan to attend, you need your own ticket and camping/survival gear for the event. Visit the official Burning Man website for more info.

Screening your short film at the Black Rock Film Fest is an excellent way to be a part of the best party/arts event on the planet.
