The 5th Annual Filmshift Festival and Screenplay contest was created by independent filmmaker, Jeremy Jed Hammel, as a way to combine three of his passions: The art of film, bringing people together, and giving back to charity in his local community.


Filmshift is held every year at the Somerville Theater in Somerville, MA. We present independent films of most genres from across the globe and we have special showcases for local films, student films, and films that have a connection to Environmental or Sustainable topics.


Some films that we have presented in the past include “Earthwork,” starring Academy-Award nominee, John Hawkes (for “Winter’s Bone,”) Comic Con 2010 winner, “Marwencol,” and “The Burning Season,” narrated by Hugh Jackman.


We offer awards from industry leaders such as Final Draft professional screenwriting software, Script Pipeline, Improv Boston, as well as superlative awards to our filmmakers.


Ten percent of our gross ticket sales are donated to Christopher’s Haven, a local charity that finds low-cost or no-cost housing for families staying in Boston for their child’s cancer treatment.
