Primary exempt purpose

Midwest Film's primary purpose is to support and promote independent filmmakers throughout the Midwest. It does this by producing monthly screening and networking events throughout the year.

  • Midwest Film produced 6 screening events for Midwest filmmakers. These sold-out events were held at the Gene Siskel Film Center. Midwest Film also put on several workshops throughout the year helping novice filmmakers in such areas as musical scoring, film lighting and ADA compliance. Midwest film finished out the year with an awards show where we honored the finest film achievements throughout the year.
