About Us

Rooftop Films is a non-profit film festival and production collective based in Brooklyn, New York.

Above all, we are a community -- a collective collaboration between filmmakers and festivals, between audience members and artists, between venues and neighborhoods. Our goal is to create a vibrant independent filmmaking community that bridges cultural boundaries.

At Rooftop Films, we bring the underground outdoors.
