RestFest Film Festival

RestFest Film Festival is an artist-run virtual film and video art festival & online gathering space created by and for the Crip, Disabled, Deaf, Chronically ill, Neurodivergent, and Mad community.

This December, RestFest is partnering with the Brooklyn Public Library to present seven films and video artworks from their 2024 and 2026 festival programs. With these films, you will find a wide range of topics, genres, and forms. RestFest promotes free creative expression from all Disabled artists, embracing the community’s artistry and diverse voices without the restrictions of only creating work about disability or illness.
