“Hands-down, one of the best festival experiences I’ve had. Amazing hospitality, wonderful community, fabulous arthouse theater, excellent films, passionate & thoughtful curation. My block of short films attracted very cool filmmakers, and a vibe you don’t want to miss. Would go back in a heartbeat. Also, Montana is gorgeous and Missoula is a great, walkable place to be. I’m so grateful I got to be a part of the 2023 fest.”

“Missoula, Montana: big skies and big hearts. Montana Film Festival was another beautiful reminder that movies bring people together, and people make great movies! Such a cool film community in MT – we WILL shoot here one day. Thanks, MTFF, for having Hellbender – and me!”
– Toby Poser, writer/director, Hellbender
“I really cannot say enough nice things about this festival. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The festival programming was immaculate and we really felt like part of the family.”
