WACO, Texas - EntSun -- The Waco Family & Faith International Film Festival hosted its 2nd annual event in the Central Texas town during the weekend of February 4-6, 2021. With its mission of being "dedicated to EMPOWERING the creative spirit, SERVING with heart, and CELEBRATING all," the film festival illuminated every aspect of its mission with an all-encompassing event that featured an international competition of 65 films that were screened at four pop-up drive-in movie experiences throughout Waco in church parking lots and online, a first-ever celebrity golf classic and tennis mixer, and online professional education workshops throughout the town of Waco. This year, the festival also launched the debut of the Waco Family & Faith Theater Festival.
"This year, we are ecstatic with the tremendous support we have received from the Waco community and our filmmakers," states Dr. Tyrha M. Lindsey-Warren, Founder of the Waco Family & Faith International Film Festival. "With the backdrop of Covid-19, this year we presented an extremely responsible and socially distance festival that we hoped would be a fun event for everyone of all ages.
