The Camden International Film Festival is proud to announce its recognition in two separate international lists created by leaders in the documentary industry.
In mid-December filmmaker / writer AJ Schnack enlisted a cast of filmmakers and industry leaders to weigh in on the top 25 film festivals worldwide. This list, now in its 2nd edition has been one of the most valuable resources for filmmakers looking to navigate the overcrowded festival schedule.

A message from our Web Committee Chair, Mark Ireland
Among the many benefits for MFVA members (and my personal favorite) are the regular meetings for our members. The meetings take place in towns from Camden to Portland, from Lewiston to Bangor and are structured in a variety of formats. Many are set up as forum-style meetings, with specific topics presented by a panel of experts. Sometimes we meet for film screenings with live music. All meetings include time to meet with colleagues over food and drinks.
