The Remission Film Festival is for creators shedding light on the experience of life before, during, & after cancer. With support from The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, this festival is open to those who have experienced cancer first hand, or have been touched by it in some way.

Edward Miskie, the cancer survivor behind the festival, is a 13 year rare Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma survivor, and author of the book 'Cancer, Musical Theatre, & Other Chronic Illnesses. Over the last 13 years, Edward has been a vocal advocate for cancer survivors in their journey out of the hospital and back into 'normal' life - whatever that means.
