 Sponsor The UnLonely Film Festival!
Showcase your commitment to addressing the loneliness epidemic by supporting Season 7 of The UnLonely Film Festival! Join us in raising awareness, connecting, and inspiring communities through the power of film.
What is The UnLonely Film Festival?
Each year, our UnLonely Film Festival showcases 35-40 short, powerful films that explore themes of loneliness, connection, and belonging from diverse perspectives.
Filmmakers submit their original films from October–February each year, and winners are selected in March. The Festival Launch Event takes place in June. As a sponsor, you benefit all year long, as we promote & share the 2023 season.
A selection from our growing collection of over 200 films is available year round, 24/7, to stream on our website! By becoming a sponsor, you help keep our library of films accessible for all, as our partner in the fight against loneliness.
