In its second year, the UNINTERRUPTED Film Festival powered by Tribeca Festival is welcoming new elements across two days of programming in Los Angeles, pushing the limits of creativity to reimagine the intersection of sports culture and filmmaking. This year, the festival introduces a filmmaker submission process that provides up-and-coming filmmakers the opportunity to submit their projects.

An esteemed selection committee, including global icon and Chairman of The SpringHill Company (TSHC) LeBron James, global tennis star, co-founder of Hana Kuma and Evolve and activist Naomi Osaka, and 7-time NBA All-Star and 2023 NBA MVP Joel Embiid will select the short films to premiere at the festival through an open call for submissions.
True to the mission of UNINTERRUPTED, we have partnered with Tribeca and leading athlete voices in the film industry, all of whom define excellence both on and off the court, said Ricardo Viramontes, General Manager of UNINTERRUPTED. These individuals are perfectly suited to help us discover the next generation of storytellers and are united in enhancing storytelling within the athlete and sport landscape.
The submission portal launches today, April 29, and is open through Friday, May 31. For more information on eligibility and to submit a film, please visit www.filmfreeway.com/UNFilmFest.
Sitting at the intersection of sports, entertainment and culture, UNINTERRUPTED will use the two-day festival to provide a platform to celebrate the humanity in sports with athletes as creators, while providing space for fans to connect with their favorite athletes through content. The festival will feature some of this year's biggest titles in sports alongside athletes, creators and filmmakers for exclusive premieres, post-screening Q&A panels, State of The Game conversations and more.
Teaming up with LeBron James and Maverick Carters The SpringHill Company in the heart of Los Angeles for a film festival is not just about celebrating storytelling, it's about breaking new ground, said Tribeca Enterprises Co-Founder and CEO Jane Rosenthal. This collaboration is an exciting opportunity for Tribeca to continue to expand its footprint beyond NYC and further establish itself as a platform for award-winning sports filmmaking and programming. In its second year, the UNINTERRUPTED Festival Powered by Tribeca Festival will bring together the passion of sports with the artistry of filmmaking to deliver a one-of-a-kind entertainment experience for fans.
