The StoryMode Independent Short Film Awards is an annual film festival celebrating the power of indie film nationwide. With so much festival noise out there, our mission is to provide a place for indie filmmakers to showcase their work for others to see and be inspired by, in an environment that is like no other. Now in it's 12th year - combining an interactive live show with amazing films, musical performances (feat. Noh & Leila Henry), audience voting, and awards. And for the first time in four years, festival director/MC Brian Salay will return to host the Live show, alongside a talented group of surprise guests. And this year, SISFA will bring artists’ dreams to life Live on stage, making this our most unique show yet.
