The Amarillo Film Society and the Greater Amarillo Film Commission, with generous support from The Tecovas Foundation and the Amarillo Area Foundation, are proud to announce the details for the second annual Amarillo International Film Festival, Oct. 9-11, 2025, at Arts in the Sunset.

Sixty-two films, including narrative and documentary features and student, narrative, and documentary shorts will fill the three day festival. Films from Austria, Canada, Guatemala, Mexico, Russia, Spain and the United Kingdom will be included along with films from California, Colorado, Illinois, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Rhode Island and Utah. Texas filmmakers hail from Amarillo, Austin, Dallas, Denton, Euless, Rockwall, San Antonio, Spring The Colony, Weslaco and Wichita Falls.

A VIP screening of four documentary short films will follow a VIP reception to kick off the festival Thursday evening. Two seminars will take place between film blocks: Friday’s “Making the Micro-budget Movie” w/ director John Putch and Saturday’s “Filming in Texas” with Stephanie Whallon and Fred Poston.
