The highly anticipated 16th season of the New Media Film Festival returns on June 4-5, 2025, in Los Angeles, California, with a groundbreaking lineup of 80 films and tech content that span genres, styles, and mediums.
May Contain: Danger
An essential, powerful exploration of the growing food allergy crisis, May Contain: Danger brings to light the life-or-death urgency of normalizing food allergies. This compelling film not only delves into the difficult choice between staying alive and fitting in but also unveils a blueprint for living life to the fullest while navigating these challenges. Created by EMMY winner Jen Greenstreet, the film offers a moving and relatable narrative that resonates with people from all walks of life.
Sky of Tides: Atla
Dive into the fractured, otherworldly realm of numen9, where oceans float above the sky and conflict looms between two powerful factions. In the midst of this looming turmoil, teenage twins Atla and Kryll revel in the limelight, embarking on a secret mission disguised as a celebrity appearance. Accompanied by Yana, Atla's Best Friend and numen9's biggest pop star, their journey takes a dangerous twist when a rebel's interference forces Atla to take center stage. From the visionary mind of Peabody winner Jason Loftus, Sky of Tides: Atla masterfully blends adventure, intrigue, and a vibrant sci-fi setting into an unforgettable cinematic experience.
