MISSION & OBJECTIVE
Bare
Bones International Film & Music Festival is dedicated to screening feature motion picture projects with budgets less
than one million dollars.
Our philosophy is to promote and support the efforts of the small budget filmmakers and
producers. We treat everyone the way we would like to be treated and provide lots of encouragement.
A spring break
and networking opportunity for Actors, Writers, Filmmakers and Producers. Our small town experiences will give you a break
from the hustle and bustle of a big city.
In the city of Muskogee, OK USA everyone greets you with a smile and a friendly "howdy".
