The 18th Annual Sidewalk Film Festival August 26-28
Sidewalk Film Festival is produced by the Alabama Moving Image Association, a federally recognized 501c3 non-profit organization with a mission to inspire, encourage and support filmgoers, the city of Birmingham and the filmmaking community. In addition to hosting the annual film festival, we host monthly networking and educational events, a monthly documentary series, short film and screenwriting competitions, manage a youth board and a variety of other year-round programs.
Tickets sales to our events cover approximately 1/3 of our annual operating cash budget, so we depend on corporate sponsors, grant-making organizations and individuals like you to survive. if you’d like to know more about supporting Sidewalk, please contact us at sidewalk@sidewalkfest.com.

Girl Asleep is a visionary Australian coming-of- age comedy. I’s hard enough for 14-year- old Greta just being the shy new girl at her school, but when her embarrassing parents decide the best way for her to come out of her shell is by throwing her a birthday party, Greta must run the gamut of an eager young suitor, a trio of high school mean girls, and a constantly evolving fantasy realm in the woods behind her house. Part of the Sidewalk Family line-up, Girl Afraid is aimed at mature young adults, those 14 years and older. The film contains profanity, smoking, images from a nightmare and mild sexual innuendo. We encourage the guidance of parents/guardians. - Corey Craft
