About the Festival. For a little background, in 2007 the Beaufort Regional Film Commission presented the first film festival under the direction of the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce. Since 2010 The Beaufort Film Society has produced the Beaufort Interternational Film Festival recognizing aspiring filmmakers of almost every genre to in clyde independent film features, animation, short films, student films, documentaries, and screenwriting. It is also an opportunity to showcase the beautiful film-friendly region of Beaufort and the Carolina Sea Islands. For over three decades, Beaufort has served as the backdrop for more than 20 major motion pictures including Forrest Gump, The Big Chill, The Prince of Tides, and many more.
Through this festival we will reintroduce our sweeping marsh vistas, antebellum homes, and quiet charm of the old south to a new generation of filmmakers.
