FilmOneFest 2025

FilmOneFest (FOF) presents the best short films from around the world against the backdrop of the Atlantic Highlands Marina, overlooking majestic New York City. FOF provides filmmakers with the opportunity to support and share their most innovative, diverse, and entertaining short-short films out there.

Taking place on Saturday, July 19, 2025, outdoors at the beautiful Atlantic Highlands Marina in historic Atlantic Highlands, NJ, FOF is a completely unique film festival experience. FOF offers filmmakers the opportunity to meet and make industry connections while enjoying a unique outdoor screening event that combines film, art, and music — truly separating FOF from other festivals. With Jury & Judge, Audience Choice, and Young Filmmaker Awards, we encourage, support, and reward the art of the short filmmaker.

Film Categories Include Comedy, drama, sci-fi, horror, experimental, documentary, animation, student, New Jersey, and female filmmakers.

FilmOneFest is supported by Sony Pictures Classics, and in part by funds from Monmouth Arts, a partner of the New Jersey State Council on the Arts, and the Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners. The FilmOneFest and the Atlantic Highlands Arts Council supports the Atlantic Highlands Food Pantry through food drives and donations.
