[Susan Parenti via Peace]

Hi friends—the Film Fest kicks off Thursday, July 31, with a gala 6-7pm at the IMC.  Almost A will be playing live music (bring your dancing shoes) and there will be free food and drinks. 

At 7pm we begin the First Annual (we hope) Interdependent Filmfest, with a short film by Bobbi Bennet, No Place to Put it, followed by feature length The Monsanto Hearings, a people’s court by Sarah Kanouse and Sarah Lewison. 

See you there!

This ground-breaking, three-day festival (31 July - 2 August 2014) presents experimental and documentary films by women filmmakers from the  Champaign-Urbana area who explore the interconnections between art & immigration, language & health care, and ecofeminism & solidarity between people around the world. Besides great films, it also features gala opening and closing ceremonies, Q&A interdependency panels with filmmakers and community members, and food donated by local groups making a global difference in the south Central Illinois region.

Sponsored by the Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center and the School for Designing a Society, you can see the film schedule here and below. Most events are 7:00pm with a noon matinee on 2 August.

Tickets and festival passes may be purchased here (seating will be limited; order early). Or you may donate to or help sponsor the event by contributinghere. Tickets are $15 ($7 low-income), with special laminated festival passes for $35.

Food as well as critical discussions with community members and filmmakers also provided. Don't miss out on this unique summer event for Champaign-Urbana.
