The Cans Film Festival is a unique DIY "open-projector"-style event meant to give filmmakers another opportunity to show their work and to connect with each other and their local community -- through can and bottle recycling deposits!
The State of Michigan is proud to be one of the few States with a Can and Bottle deposit system in which Michiganders pay 10 cents upfront for every can and bottle they purchase and can redeem the 10 cents by recycling them at almost every grocery store across the State.
In a spirit of Great Lakes pride, the price of admission to the festival is simply a donation of cans or bottles. At the end of the night, audiences vote for their favorite film of the evening, with all the proceeds going directly to the top three!
Submissions Deadline: June 5, 2024
