Welcome to the homepage for the Gunndance Film Festival 2020! 

This is the second annual Gunndance Film Festival hosted by the Gunn High School Film Club in Palo Alto, California. The festival was started with the goal of encouraging young artists and filmmakers to showcase their creativity outside of the classroom, and to give the arts a place to flourish in a heavily STEM influenced area. This year's prompt was “Change and G​rowth.” We wanted to challenge the participants to show off how they have adapted to high school life and how they have grown despite adversity. We’d like to extend a big thank you to all the filmmakers who submitted a short film this year; you make the festival what it is, and we truly could not do it without you. Below are all the films from the 2020 submission pool. Enjoy!
