The Atlantic City Film Festival was founded in 1997 by Joe Fedison and has screened nearly 500 films. The venues included: Atlantic City Convention Center, Ballys, Caesars, Claridge, Ocean One, Resorts, Showboat, Trump Marina, Trump Taj Mahal and Tropicana.

This year's festival will attract visitors to Atlantic City who will stay, play and dine - but first they will come for the movies and the excitement that is an International Film Festival.
