The 2009 Atlanta Underground Film Festival will feature every genre of cinema from across the world. AUFF brings together thousands of people for an incredible celebration of independent film and talented filmmakers. You are invited to experience this unique film festival! 100+ independent films will be showcased during the non-stop five day event.
Since 2002, the creators of Atlanta Underground Film Festival have offered filmmakers the opportunity to thrive outside the mainstream arena. Creative artists who continuously break the boundaries of film, video, art and music are promoted through AUFF, so they too have a voice in a market typically saturated with commercial entertainment designed to satisfy the audiences expectations.
Much more than the traditional stuffy, black-tie film festival, Atlanta Underground Film Festival will showcase short and feature films, art, live music, special events and plenty of late night parties.
AUFF will also host the largest animation and documentary festivals in the Southeast: Animation Attack! and DocuFest Atlanta
