We’re proud to announce the 2020 Feature Retreat & Fellowship Contest finalists!

A SEASON OF EXCEPTIONAL SUBMISSIONS

These eight finalists emerged as the most powerful in a season of exceptional submissions. We thank our judges for all their work narrowing down such a competitive field to these incredible screenplays.

WHAT’S NEXT

Each of the finalists will be considered for this year’s Fellowship, which is valued at $20,000 and includes, among other prizes, $10,000 and a year long mentorship with two entertainment industry professionals. We also will name second and third place winners. For more information about prizes for each winner, please visit our Features Prizes page.

Congratulations to this year’s feature finalists, and please check back in early September, when we’ll announce our winners and our feature fellow!
