Batch Now Open
The independent film festival circuit is broken. You spend months on your film, pay submission fees, and get nothing back. Not even a note. Roast Film Fest exists to fix that, with honest, brutal, and genuinely useful critique wrapped in wit.
No diplomatic platitudes. No participation trophies. Your film gets the critique it needs, not the one your ego wants.
Every roast is a detailed written critique: sharp, specific, and actually actionable. Plus a shareable punchline card for your film.
For the price of a coffee, you get more genuine insight than most festivals will ever give you.
Current standings
Every film that stepped onto the spit gets a number. Here are the three who came out the closest to medium-rare.
Submissions Open
One submission. The most honest critique you'll ever receive. No festival in the world gives you this much truth for this little money.
