9/25/2013

0 Comments

 
In the Spotlight today is the 8th Annual Illinois International Film Festival (IIFF), welcoming gifted filmmakers to the Windy City for an unforgettable celebration that seeks to swiftly sweep them towards increased industry exposure. Offering a broad range of competitive categories -- including dramatic films, comedies, documentaries, horror, science-fiction, family films, and animation -- IIFF explores every imaginable form of big-screen storytelling and culls only the best submissions for global recognition.

In addition to its exceptional buffet of stellar cinema, IIFF excels at bringing together seasoned professionals and newly discovered voices, all with the aim of advancing careers and deepening perspectives. IIFF doesn't favor films with big budgets, impressive star power, or industry connections. Instead, it helps engineer industry connections for filmmakers who don't already have them. In short, IIFF is a filmmakers' film festival where talent, drive, and story enjoy prominence -- and where robust and exciting filmmaking careers are born and nurtured.

Just as important, the festival provides a formidable platform on which cinematic talents can screen their works before a diverse, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable audience. Throughout it all, the city of Chicago provides an ideal backdrop for total immersion in arts, culture, and limitless possibility.
