DC’s International Film Festival
While it may not be as star studded as Sundance, Cannes, Telluride, or Tribeca, the 22nd annual Washington, DC International Film Festival brings more than 100 feature films, documentaries, shorts and special programs from over thirty nations to explore their music, cultures, people and politics.
For 12 days, starting April 24th, this year’s festival will highlights the cinema of Latin America and, perfect for our upcoming presidential election, politics on film.
The fest also includes several free events, including Filmfest DC for Kids and Cinema for Seniors.
Here’s the list of films and locations. Unfortunately, the fest’s website is a bit frustrating this year, requiring user to click on each film link, one by one to read the synopses.
