As last day of submissions comes to a close, The MFF would like to take a moment to thank all of the amazing motorcycle enthusiast filmmakers who submitted their films in the 1st annual MFF. This festival is by riders for riders, and it is only because of your contributions that we have one to host. Thank you for making motorcycle films, and for being a part of what we hope will be the first of many years of MFF.

There’s only a few days left to send in your submissions for the Motorcycle Film Festival! All entries must be sent and postmarked BEFORE Friday, August 23rd to be eligible for the 2013 festival. Check out our submission info page for all the details on how to submit.
A little update For those who have submitted already:
First things first, thank you for being AWESOME and helping make this film festival happen. Without your submissions there would be no MFF. Period. We’re in this for you and we can’t thank you enough for all of the movies that have arrived at our door. We’ve already begun the reviewing process and promise that we’re going out of our way to treat each film with the respect and time it deserves.
Which brings me to my next update:
You may be wondering why there are no tickets or passes for sale yet and almost no information about how you can actually attend the festival. Since we only have limited hours in our venues to screen movies, we can only screen a limited number of the films that are submitted. So, we’re waiting for the submission period to end and our judges to make their decisions on which movies they feel should be screened. Once we have our screening line-ups determined, then we’ll start selling tickets. We had a feeling it’d be a helluva lot more appealing to everyone be able to buy tickets to specific movies rather than just praying for the best.
HERE’S THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
Tickets and passes will go on sale in the first week of September so stay tuned for more info. For now, get those last minute submissions in!

We are thrilled to announce that Saint Vitus Bar will host the First Annual 2013 Motorcycle Film Festival!
Saintvitus
Saint Vitus1120 Manhattan Ave., nr. Clay St., Greenpoint
The upper reaches of Greenpoint have lately joined the blocks around Mars Bar and Hank’s Saloon as a locus point for rock-and-roll misfits. Their new hangout, Saint Vitus, is a lofty space bouncing with red candlelight and a knobs-to-eleven soundtrack of goth rock and metal. At the front bar, roadie types sling beer-and-shot combos (a Brooklyn Brine pickleback with a Coors tallboy is a good choice). Bands perform in back, and soon, live-band karaoke will fire up.
