The winners of Napa Valley Film Festival 2013.
We celebrated the final night of #NVFF13 at the official Awards Ceremony & Wrap Party at the Uptown Theatre in downtown Napa Sunday, November 17. With such a talented array of filmmakers and phenomenal films in attendance at this year’s fest, we definitely gave the jury a run for their money. We’re happy to present the final winners of the third annual Napa Valley Film Festival, including both the juried awards and the audience voted favorites.
