FilmFreeway is a website for filmmakers to submit their films to hundreds of film festivals globally. Started in Canada in 2014 as a four-person startup, it steadily grew in competition to the much larger Amazon-owned company, Withoutabox.
Until that time, Withoutabox had a virtual monopoly on the digital film festival submission process.[1] With the closing in September 2019 of Withoutabox, FilmFreeway became the default tool for the worldwide film festival submissions process.[2][3][4]
FilmFreeway was acquired by Backstage (magazine) publication and entertainment-industry portal in September 2021.[5]
