The Made in Hawaii Film Festival return to Hilo from March 25-28, with both virtual offerings and limited capacity in-person screenings at the Palace Theatre in Hilo.

This year’s festival offers a lineup of over 60 Hawai’i-made films, including feature-length and short narrative films, documentaries, music videos and web series–all shot within the state of Hawai’i.

“We hope to provide a platform not only for local filmmakers to screen their work, but for the community to see how much Hawaii island has to offer,” said festival co-founder and Palace Theater Executive Director Phillips Payson in a press release. “MIHFF was started here at the Palace, and we are inspired by the growth within Hawaii’s film industry. Whether you’re watching the program from home or attending a screening, we hope you’ll be inspired and entertained by the diversity of stories being produced locally.”

Films will be grouped by category in blocks of 90 to 120 minutes. In-person festival tickets will run $10 for one block, with a full access pass available for all three days for $30. All virtual offerings will be run through the festival’s website (www.MIHFF.org) at no cost.

“I know much of our audience will want to enjoy our lineup from the safety and comfort of their own couch, and it was important for us to be able to offer that at no cost,” said Zoe Eisenberg, the festival’s Executive Director, in a press release.
