The 2014 Sham Film Festival has announced its slate of accepted films for its inaugural year, featuring an international group of filmmakers.

The festival – the first of its kind in the region – is a celebration of parody, mockery, spoofs and satire. The festival takes place Friday, October 24, 2014, at 7:00 p.m. at Winifred Moore Auditorium on the campus of Webster University.

The Sham Film Festival will showcase filmmakers’ work in categories such as fake movie trailers and commercials, mockumentaries, parodies and spoofs.

The grand prize of the Sham Film Festival, the Palm’d Oar trophy, comes with a cash award of $250 and free entry into the 2015 festival. The evening will be hosted by NYC stand-up comic, storyteller and writer Graham Eason Nolan. A graduate of the Second City training center in Chicago, he has performed at the Metropolitan Room, Gotham Comedy Club and more.
