The awards ceremony honors remarkable industry experts and personalities across the disciplines of short film, feature film, and digital series. The DFA ceremony brings a moment of reflection to those who are committed to challenging representation in film and the film industry.
As the only leading film awards organization in Detroit, the DFA honors excellence in the independent film community.
