Bringing together the film lovers and filmmakers of East Texas

Your hub for cinema in ETX

East Texas is big; there is more space between towns than the size of the towns themselves.

Where does a film lover find interesting film events in the area to attend?

Where does a film maker find local talent in the area to hire?

They find it here, through the East Texas Film Society.

Our aim is to join the film community scattered across the region by showcasing screenings and events already happening around us, keeping talent informed of casting and production calls, hosting our own unique film screenings, and providing an avenue for casual or intellectual discussion over cinema and related topics.
