About this festival
The
Rural Route Film Festival has been created to highlight works
that deal with rural people and places. While the term "rural"
is defined by Webster's Dictionary as: 1) Of or relating to
the country: RUSTIC 2) Of or relating to people who live in
the
country 3) Of or relating to farming: AGRICULTURAL, the creators
of Rural Route Film Festival leave it up to you, the film and
video artists, to explain your own definition of "rural."
Whether it be a documentary about an organic turnip farm in West
Virginia, a fictional backpacking drama set in Peru, or a personal/experimental
work about life in a small town in Wisconsin, we want to see
and hear what you have to say. Works that include alternative
country,
country western, and folk music are encouraged, as are those
that play loud rock in cornfields.
