As we say in this biz, "the show must go on!" And it will go on, but not exactly as we had planned. We hope to reschedule WorldFest-Houston 53 later in the Summer!

There are so many unknowns, but we do know that our juries still want to share these incredible projects with the world and we will continue our mission to validate cinematic excellence.

We are working with our juries to complete their screenings in the next two weeks and we will announce and inform all Remi Winners! We will know more about what we will do about the Premiere Film Screenings as the future reveals itself over the next few weeks.

We do pledge to keep you informed and we pledge to keep doing our part to promote the creators of independent film, our amazing city of Houston and the diverse cultures of the world.

If you have questions, please reach out to us. We will have more answers soon! We hope to provide screening opportunities to our selected filmmakers when normalcy has returned.

Thank you for your support! And thank you for sharing your passion with us - remember that in times of chaos, sharing good stories is an elixir of life.

We will return with more "good stories, well told" from around the world!

With hope,

Team WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival
