People’s Choice Awards
Welcome to the People’s Choice Awards page - where you get to help determine the winner!
What is the Mississippi Minute Film Festival?
Our organization – Minneapolis Riverfront Partnership – invited the general public to create a film of up to a minute. We asked people to create a vision that showcases an appreciation for – or the future potential of – the riverfront in Minneapolis. Most important, we want the film to inform, energize, and inspire our citizenry to action – all in 60 seconds!
What is the People’s Choice Award?
On this page are all 22 qualifying entries we received for the 2015 Mississippi Minute Film Festival. A panel of judges will judge most of the films and award honors in several category.
