The 3rd Annual Filmshift Festival was created by independent filmmaker, Jeremy Jed Hammel, as a way to combine three of his passions: The
art of film, bringing people together, and giving back to charity in hislocal community.
Filmshift is held every year at the Somerville Theater in Somerville, MA. We present independent films of most genres and we have special Showcases
for local films, student films, and films that have a connection to Environmental or Sustainable topics.
Some films that we have presented in the past include “Earthwork,” starring Academy-Award nominee, John Hawke (for “Winter’s Bone,”) Comic Con 2010 winner, “Marwencol,” and “The Burning Season,” narrated by Hugh Jackman.
We offer a cash prize, awards from our sponsors, and superlative awards to our filmmakers.
Ten percent of our gross ticket sales are donated to Christopher’s Haven, a local charity that finds low-cost or no-cost housing for families staying in
Boston for their child’s cancer treatment.
