Comments:
The Knoxville Film Festival has become the largest and most complete film festival in the region. Produced in partnership between award-winning filmmaker Keith McDaniel and Dogwood Arts, KFF is held at Knoxville's Arthouse theater, the Regal Downtown West Cinema 8. KFF has truly become the region's destination for independent cinema. In 2015, KFF had nearly 4,000 in attendance, screened more than 90 independent films, held panel discussions, and hosted two filmmaking competitions.
