The 14th annual Ashland Independent Film Festival took place over the week end in southern Oregon. AIF gives special focus to small independent features and shorts and always includes Oregon projects.
During the 5 days of screenings and events, 97 films were presented, as well as many workshops, Q-and-A’s and “talk-back” sessions. All of the screenings were well attended at this packed festival.
With AIFF just a little more than one month away, we wanted to update you on some new info. A full schedule of events should be up on AIFF’s website in a few weeks but here’s what has been announced to date.
