The New/Next Film Festival, a celebration of emerging film culture presented by Baltimore Public Media, returns Oct. 3-6 to the historic The Charles Theatre.
The 2024 festival has expanded to four days to feature more films and visiting filmmakers, and also includes at least two free screenings for our community.
The Charles Theatre will again be New/Next’s home base, while activations are planned for independently run venues in the area including Baltimore Improv Group, Metro Gallery and others.
A limited number of All Access Passes are available now. Lineup and event details will also be announced starting in early September.
New/Next, initially conceived as a reaction to the announcement that the Maryland Film Festival (MdFF) would not have a 2023 festival, drew roughly 3,000 attendees over three days during its inaugural festival (August 18-20, 2023).
The festival's 2023 lineup featured diverse film work of international scope alongside new and repertory work from the Baltimore film scene; more than half of the films screened were directed by women or non-binary creators, and more than half had ties to Baltimore and Maryland.
Details on the festival will continue to be updated at newnextfilmfestival.com
Support for the 2024 New/Next Film Festival comes from the Maryland State Arts Council, the State of Maryland, BakerArtist.org, the Leidy Foundation, Meyerhoff Fund, Baltimore Community Foundation and Maryland Film Office.
