We’re proud to celebrate Nashville Film Festival selections from our 2024 and 2025 programs earning Academy Award® nominations yesterday.
These films represent the bold, independent storytelling we champion year-round—and we’re honored to have screened and supported them on their journey to the world stage. Congratulations to the filmmakers and creative teams behind these incredible achievements!
