2019 Lodging

Genuine thanks to our lodging partners for helping us create a first-rate experience for our guests from all over the world.

Note from Scout's Founder to participating filmmakers:

We realize travel to the festival may not be possible for every filmmaker, and if we can help make this trip more feasible for you and your family or friends, we do have some options to offer at your request. We want to make sure the choice to participate in person is not an economic one and will try to help if we can. Please email me at anna@scoutfilmfestival.org if you would like to discuss the options at our disposal.
