As the only experimental film festival in New England, H.E.F.F. 2016 proudly returns to Haverhill, Massachusetts for a fourth consecutive year. We welcome the abstract, the riveting, the beautiful, the rugged, the emotional, the bold, the raw. We welcome films that tear through tradition and break boundaries with finesse. Most of all, we welcome your idea of experimental.

H.E.F.F. 2016 will be a three day experimental film extravaganza. Our goal is to take over the downtown River Arts District of Haverhill with an entirely free festival to continue to expose experimental film to the community. To close up the fest, a hand-selected slate of films in competition will be chosen by the directors and taken on the road for a festival tour down I-95 hitting as many major stops as possible.

For the 2016 festival, we will only be accepting 500 total entries. We have no room for an expansion of H.E.F.F. and will exhibit 55-60 films like previous years. Once we've hit our goal of 500 submissions, the entry deadlines will no longer be in effect and H.E.F.F. will stop accepting submissions. We want to be fair to filmmakers and give the utmost attention to each film/video during prescreening. When we are in a position to expand the festival, we will accept more submissions and screen more works.

Take a look at our 2015 list of films in competition to see what we're all about: http://www.haverhillexperimental.org/#!films--videos-2015/cyvg
