About Me

The Bearded Child Traveling Film Festival is now entering it's 10th year of underground film programing! What began as an eccentric eyebrow raiser in Grand Rapids, Minnesota is now en route to global cinematic domination! See schedules and recaps from the first 8 years at www.beardedchild.com.

Just announced! Bearded Child will be hosting a program of new works at the Arkansas Underground Film Festival, Sunday Aug 15, 2010, at Low Key Arts in Hot Springs Nat'l Park, Arkansas! www.hsdfi.org/arkuff

The Bearded Child is always plotting schemes for future tours and events. In addition to film screenings, we also do live video and VJ shows. Contact us to see the fest in your city or township!
