16mm film is 100 years old this year, but the format has never seen something like this! Filmo is our one-of-a-kind experiment in participatory movie watching and fortuitous curation. Here's the deal: everyone in attendance receives a unique Filmo card. It's like a bingo card, except each square lists a title of a short-short 16mm film (out of 75 possible options.)
We'll draw a title and will then play that film. As audience members check-off their squares and get F-I-L-M-O, winners get to choose the next film! (Plus some lucky winners will take home special prizes!)
Film scholar Eli Boonin-Vail called our Filmo test run "Bar none the most fun I've ever had at a screening!"
This is our one-year anniversary party and fundraiser, so admission will be slightly higher than usual at $15.
Doors open at 7:30. Filmo start at 8:00.

Accessibility note: The street-level entrance to the screening space has a two inch lip at the door, which we'll be very glad to assist with. Stairs are not required. Details and contact info will be emailed to registrants.
