Rivercity Underground Film Festival

The Rivercity Underground Film Festival (RUFF) is a San Antonio festival for avant-garde, art-house, independent and no- or low-budget filmmaking, run by festival director Jennifer Mendez. Its listing describes a program meant to give filmmakers room to try new approaches and new forms of media art, interpreting "underground" broadly, and says it looks for films made with passion that push the limits of form and content, with a strong sense of authorship. Awards in acting, directing, cinematography, editing, sound design and student categories come as certificates and laurels. The listing says the event takes place on the first weekend of December, but its most recent listed edition was January 13, 2024. No later dates were posted, so it is listed as dormant.
