SENE Film Festival

Now in its 9th year, the Southeast New England Film, Music & Arts Festival has established itself as one of the premier festivals in New England dedicated to giving life to independent cinema, music and art.

Join us for 5 days of independent films from across the country and around the world, live music, art exhibits, panels and parties. Meet filmmakers from all over the world, local artists and musicians all in one dynamic festival.

Held in Providence, RI, just an hour from Boston and three hours from New York City, the Festival attracts young and enthusiastic audiences from the prestigious places of learning that are all in close proximity, including Brown University, the Rhode Island School of Design and Johnson & Wales University.

The Festival welcomes submissions from the United States and around the world, of varied forms and genres, including narrative, documentary, animation, experimental, music videos, drama, comedy, thrillers, film noir, sci-fi, horror and LGBT films.

SENE organizers are dedicated to providing a filmmaker-friendly fest experience with participating filmmakers receiving a VIP pass to all screenings, parties and events. Filmmakers are always introduced at their screenings and have plenty of Q&A time following.
