2015 winners
The Minneapolis Riverfront Partnership would like to extend its warm thanks to each of the entrants in the 2015 Mississippi Minute Film Festival! We’ve been so lucky to have a wide range of talent, interest, and entries that each warrant a viewing (or more!).
The winners are listed and shown here. All winners – with the exception of the viewer’s choice award – were determined by a five-judge panel, which included: Whitney Clark (Executive Director, Friends of the Mississippi River), Councilmember, Lisa Goodman (Minneapolis City Council), Brenda Langton (Owner, Spoonriver Restaurant), Tom Meyer (Founding Partner, MSR Architecture), Dean Otto (Associate Film Curator, Walker Art Center) and Councilmember Blong Yang (Minneapolis City Council).
You can also browse an alphabetical list of all 22 film entries we received.
Relax, and enjoy a range of compelling perspectives on the Mississippi River!
