The 2022 Award Winning Films Have Been Announced.

Still Voices Film Festival 2022 has come to a close. After five days of amazing films, panels and talks we closed the festival out with our awards show where the award-winning films were announced. The 2022 selection of films was by far our strongest yet and our judges had a difficult time choosing the winners. Each winner is listed below. We want to thank all the filmmakers who submitted work to us this year and our submission call for the 2023 festival opens on December 1st.
