The Southern Winds Film Festival announces a call for entries. First deadline is December 25, 2006. The Festival will be held September 12th-16th of 2007 and will hold a special category for Native American Films. In the historic heart of downtown Shawnee, Oklahoma this will be our first year of operation. This film festival concentrates heavily on the "festival." Whether you are a filmmaker or a festival lover, you will definitely enjoy this one. Packed full of audience members from the outlying communities as well as fellow filmmakers, this is what a film gathering is all about. Filmmakers be sure to submit in time to make this amazing event. Patrons get ready for what is going to be a great time being surrounded by artists from the film and music industry.
