Azure Lorica Aware Fest would like to thank everyone for supporting this great festival. Azure Lorica regrets to inform that it will not be continuing in 2020. This was a passionate endeavor that brought great filmmakers and screenwriters to the community of Pasadena, but due to a lack of financial support, Aware Fest may have seen its first and last premiere in 2019. We encourage you to subscribe for further announcements. 

Again, Azure Lorica appreciates your support. It was our pleasure to serve your community. We welcome filmmakers and script writers join us for FanFilm Awards for future submissions: ffa.azurelorica.org
