About the Big Eddy Film Festival
Emerging from the picturesque wilds of Sullivan County – the Big Eddy Film Festival (BEFF) is a cinematic celebration of counter-current narratives.
Produced by the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance, this immersive festival sparks new cultural possibilities at the juncture of film, art, and rural imagination.
What Our Filmmakers Say!
The Big Eddy Film Festival is the little festival that has the polish of a much larger event. My film played in 2020, when many of the larger festivals had been cancelled. I was so impressed by the professionalism of the Big Eddy team as they navigated the constantly changing environment of a global pandemic to pull off a great event.
Screening at Big Eddy was a festival highlight for us. Being surrounded by such an intelligent, fun community, one eager to absorb stories and share in a love of cinema, made our hearts sing.
I’m so happy to have a film festival in Sullivan County. Life only gets better when there are great venues like the Tusten Theatre to show films that entertain, educate and shine light on the things that connect us to each other and take us to worlds we’ve yet to discover.
I enjoyed the intimacy of the venues and the deep engagement of the audiences, and the warmth of the town itself. Would feel honored to show another film there in the future.
We loved the festival and the screening, and so did our friends.
