<p class="MsoNormal">Join us for the 5th Anniversary of our Annual Feminist Film
Festival, a night of student-made short films (between 5 and 15 minutes in
length) screened one night only at the Art Theater Co-Op in downtown Champaign!
The Annual Feminist Film Festival a grassroots event that utilizes art and
alternative media to bring social issues into the fore. The goal of the
festival is to showcase independent film spanning documentary, narrative, and
experimental genres in order to explore perspectives often missing from
mainstream media and culture. Celebrating it’s 5th anniversary, the festival
strives to serve as an inclusive public space for underrepresented artists and
filmmakers—particularly women and people of color—to raise consciousness
concerning issues related to gender, race, class, sexuality, and other
dimensions of social inequality. </p>
