10th Anniversary

REEDY REELS FILM FESTIVAL

A Decade of Lights, Cameras, and Community: A Message from the CEO

 

Dear Reedy Reels Film Festival Enthusiasts,

 

As we approach the 10th anniversary of the Reedy Reels Film Festival, we want to share our gratitude for your consistent support and enthusiasm for our festival. For ten years, you, the incredible Greenville community, have embraced the magic of independent cinema, turning Reedy Reels into a vibrant platform for storytelling and artistic expression.

From the first flickering frame on opening night to the countless standing ovations and thought-provoking discussions that followed, you have fueled our passion for this event and what it stands for. You’ve championed emerging filmmakers, celebrated established voices, and fostered a love for cinema that transcends the big screen.

The success of Reedy Reels isn’t measured solely in awards or attendance numbers. It’s etched in the laughter that fills the theater, the tears that well up during emotional moments, and the spark of inspiration that ignites in the eyes of a young audience member. It’s in the post-screening discussions that bridge divides and creates a space for shared experiences.

This wouldn’t be possible without the tireless contributions of our phenomenal volunteers and board members and the generous support of our sponsors. Your belief in our mission has been the bedrock on which Reedy Reels has flourished.

As we celebrate ten years, we look forward to a future brimming with new stories, voices, and inspiration. Here’s to another decade (and beyond!) of celebrating the magic of independent cinema together.

With heartfelt appreciation,

Matt Foster
CEO, Reedy Reels Film Festival
