The Lake Travis Film Festival shows a mix of short films, music videos, and feature length films. The screenings are supplemented by master classes, table reads, and parties. The festival prides itself in offering thought-provoking, independent films, which may not ever make their way to a traditional theaters.

We screen films from across the globe and honor emerging filmmakers from a variety of age, religious, ethnic, and cultural perspectives. Our goal is to bring worthy filmmakers and screenwriters to our community audience to provide a platform for appreciative and informed discussion of their work.

LTFF cultivates spaces for independent filmmakers to create and share their stories; in order to discover extraordinary films and scripts. As a festival, LTFF is committed to recognizing emerging talent.
