The Omaha Film Festival (OFF) was established in 2005 as a platform for independent filmmakers to showcase their work and engage with the local community. With over 100 films screened annually, including narrative features, documentaries, short films, and animated shorts, the festival offers a diverse selection of independent cinema from around the world. Recognized by MovieMaker magazine as one of the top 50 film festivals worth the entry fee, OFF aims to celebrate the artistic, educational, and historical significance of motion pictures while fostering creativity, discovery, and dialogue.
OFF provides a unique opportunity for filmmakers to interact with audiences, with selected filmmakers invited to attend the festival and engage in discussions about their films. The festival also features a special section dedicated to Nebraska-made films, further supporting and promoting local talent. In addition to screenings, OFF hosts a Filmmaker's Conference, offering panels, lectures, and workshops taught by industry professionals, making it one of the leading teaching festivals in the Central United States.
