The mission of the annual sci-fi film festival is to provide screens for the finest independent sci-fi films locally and internationally, increase cultural diversity and interest in the genre, and inspires the local sci-fi community by cultivating engaging art.

Creating independent sci-fi films is becoming easier with today’s rapid-paced technological development. ASCIFFF nurtures new talent and supports concepts that are not often presented in mainstream media or studio films.

The festival was founded in 2015 by Amanda Ray with the goal of fostering rich science fiction storytelling and challenging perceptions of the future and the intersection between technology and art.

We offer multiple ways to support the Atlanta Sci-Fi Film Festival and its mission to empower filmmakers, inspire audiences, and bring sci-fi visions to life!‍
