The Heartland Film Festival is a film festival held each October in Indianapolis, Indiana. First held in 1992, its goal is to "recognize and honor filmmakers whose work explores the human journey by artistically expressing hope and respect for the positive values of life."
In May 2007, Heartland Truly Moving Pictures was created as the parent company for the Heartland Film Festival. The Heartland Film Festival is one of three programs sponsored by Heartland Truly Moving Pictures. The other two are the Truly Moving Picture Award program and the Heartland Institute which encourages young filmmakers and film as an education tool.
