“We in the faith-based film industry are overcoming a past stereotype that says, faith-based films are all over-hyped, under-acted and severely under-funded. To that point many of the faith film festivals have struggled to find content that are not these things…until now. The Attic Film Festival blows me away! From the films they choose, to the screenings, to the support and people representing the festival, and to the overall festival energy. The Attic Film Festival was just simply incredible,” says Steve Brio, Hero EP, writer and actor.
