2nd Annual Philly Independent Film Festival: All Greased Up And Ready To Roll
The Philadelphia Independent Film Festival (hereafter referred to as PIFF) kicks off this Thursday the 25th, and will run until Sunday the 28th. PIFF will showcase the work of locals as well as out-of-towners and will be jam-packed with round table discussions, meet and greets, and panels, not to mention a ton of great independent films.
North Bowl will host a $30 opening night extravaganza on Thursday, with an evening chock full of free bowling, hors d’oeuvres, free drinks, and plenty of door prizes and swag. Other venues include 941 Theater, Exit Skate Shop, Video Smith, Yards Brewery, The Piazza, Arbol Cafe, and The Philadelphia Soundstages. You can find a full schedule of events here.
And make sure you at least get out to see some of your fellow compatriots’ work, like Philly Boy Joe Stakun’s documentary, I Love My Bicycle showing at Moore College on Friday at 6 and 8 PM and at City Fitness on Sunday at 2 PM.
