Ridgewood NJ,  The Journey of the 2020 RGIFF! The Ridgewood Guild International Film Festival, originally scheduled as a live film festival event in April 2020 had to be postponed until October 2020 due to NJ Covid 19 restrictions. When NJ tightened Covid 19 restrictions further and closed theaters and banned all public gatherings, the Festival Committee was determined to NOT CANCELING the Festival. The Festival Committee decided to do a Virtual Film Festival in December 2020. Of course, never having done a virtual festival before, we experienced technical issues in learning a totally new platform to host the Festival. Committed to holding our Festival, the 2020 Festival dates was pushed out yet once again. Hence, that’s how we got here – our 2020 Ridgewood Guild International Film Festival being held virtually from February 27-March 3, 2021. We feel this is the continuation of the journey of our 2020 Festival and, hopefully, will be calling for submissions soon for our upcoming 2021 Film Festival.
