Official Selection / Catalina Film Festival. We’re honored that Living With The Odds was chosen as an Official Selection for the Catalina Film Festival — a festival that carries real legacy and Hollywood history. CFF takes place on the scenic Santa Catalina Island, and its centerpiece venue, the historic Avalon Casino Theatre, is built on the weight of cinematic legends.
CFF isn’t just any indie fest: over the years it has welcomed names like Nicolas Cage, William H. Macy, Patricia Arquette, Kate Bosworth, filmmakers and actors who shaped modern cinema. Rhode Island Monthly
The festival consistently ranks among the top 1% of all global film festivals according to filmmaker feedback and has been named one of the "Top 50 Film Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" by industry press.
That history matters — because when you submit a film to Catalina, you’re not just entering a contest. You’re putting your work on a stage that has seen Oscar-winners, Hollywood icons, breakout indie gems, and major red-carpet moments.
So for Living With The Odds, being selected at CFF means we didn’t just meet criteria our film stood among work strong enough to live up to that legacy. It’s a story about survival, faith, and human grit and CFF recognized it.
At Integrity Media, we don’t make films just to fill time. We make films that earn their place in festivals, that demand attention, and that carry weight. When our work lands on a screen at Catalina — alongside films and names with long pedigrees — that’s validation.
We believe in stories with pulse, stories with soul... and Living With The Odds proved it has both.
