Following its successful relaunch under the direction of new Executive Director Raymond Guarneri during the 2015 season, which saw the doubling of festival attendance over the previous year, the festival will look to expand its programing to include new venues and neighborhoods within New York State’s second largest city, Buffalo. Since opening the call for entries on January 29, 2016, the festival has seen a sharp increase in submissions over last year’s early bird deadline.
“Our growing festival promises to offer new opportunities for artists working within all forms of cinema, we’re also expanding our commitment to diverse independent storytelling providing a vital platform for voices that have been historically underrepresented in media” said Tilke Hill, Co-Director.
