From our humble beginnings in 2003 with only 14 films, the OVFF has grown to become an International Film Festival. In 2015 seventy-five filmmakers from the area and abroad - including Australia, England and Germany - descended on Venice for three days of film screenings, premieres, sell out crowds, spirited Q&A sessions, panel discussions, local art on display and parties with live music and DJs. For 2016, we are certain we have the best selection of films yet. We will also be recognizing City Dignitaries with an Abbot Award for Community Service. Some of the local artists who have participated in the festival include RogerCorman, Catherine Hardwicke,, Werner Herzog, Tony Alva, Orson Bean,Tony Bill, Paul Chowder, Camryn Manheim, Gary Marcus, Stanley Mitchell,Chris Mulkey, Zak Penn, Stacey Peralta, Michael Pressman, Danny Trejo,Oliver Stone, Lori Petty and Sean Welch, among many others.
