HCAF 2021 will feature over 40 films, shorts programs, DJ sets, live performances, and more. This year’s theme, The Third Coast, will provide a lens through which to celebrate and explore the Gulf Coast region. A term coined in Houston, the Third Coast represents the city’s dynamic culture, film, music, performance, the arts, and much more.
HCAF 2021 will also see the return of both CineSpace, our annual short film competition with NASA, and the return of our new Borders | No Borders regional short film competition.
Come see the festival that MovieMaker Magazine called “One of the Top 25 Coolest Film Festival in the World.”
