What story can you tell with $0?
A different kind of film fest – the Shoestring Film Fest challenges its participants to submit films with a ZERO dollar budget!
Through limitation, creativity thrives.
Hosted on behalf of the Hudson Cultural Alliance, the fest pays tribute to the hardworking roots of the local shoe-manufacturing industry in Hudson, Massachusetts.
