Located in Southern
California, Fallbrook and its surrounding communities is a beehive of creative
energies: artists, sculptors, writers, actors, musicians, dancers, designers,
and filmmakers. In 2006, the non-profit Fallbrook Film Factory was formed to
foster filmmaking activities similar to community theatre, and out of that the Fallbrook
International Film Festival evolved, now entering its fifth season. Fallbrook
was also the family home to one of Hollywood’s all-time filmmaking legends
Frank Capra during the height of his filmmaking career. To that aim, we have
been most fortunate to gain the support of the Capra family, allowing us to
host a very special award in his name. And this year, due to the strong support
from the Hollywood stunt community, we are adding Action Films as an award category
and workshops with top stunt directors, reveling this hidden art of filmmaking.
The British Independent Film Festival Award nominations are here! See below for who will be competing for our shiny awards!
The Award Ceremony will close the festival at 10.30pm at the Empire Cinema, Leicester Square and will be hosted by Hollywood actor Tamer Hassan (The Football Factory, The Business).

Movie theaters typically love having two big-budget movies butting heads on a holiday weekend because that will keep cash registers whirring at cinema complexes. But an abundance of riches has put theaters in a bind for Memorial Day 2009. Both 20th Century Fox and DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. have chosen that date to release what each hopes will be its first 3-D blockbuster. DreamWorks' "Monsters vs. Aliens" will be up against a potentially scarier creature: "Avatar," a science-fiction thriller...
