The Cobb International Film Festival is a collaboration between Long Shot Productions, Cobb Travel & Tourism and The Earl and Rachel Smith Strand Theatre.

Held in the Earl and Rachel Smith Strand Theatre on beautiful Marietta Square in Marietta, Georgia each year, this festival is a meeting place for filmmakers and people who are interested in the world in all its variety and  different approaches to life.

The festival offers filmmakers a platform to introduce their work and discuss topics shown in the film as well as the filmmaking process to encourage and create dialogue between people.

The Festival accepts feature-length films, short films and documentary films of all lengths from filmmakers at all different levels.

In 2016, the Cobb International Film Festival began a partnership with Film Racing and includes the Screenings and Awards Program for the international finalists of the 24 Hour Film Race as part of the festival.
