The Indie Short Film Series returns with award winning international and domestic films hitting the screen at Vinegar Hill Theatre JAN 15 The INDIE short FILM SERIES is the area's only series of its kind. Screening international and domestic films regularly in Central Virginia. With nearly sold out screenings, filmmakers have been submitting their work to get in front of fresh new audiences that the Indie Short Film Series have been able to attract. This popularity has provided the opportunity for the Series' programming to be selective in what's programmed. The Series’ founder is a filmmaker, creative director of a marketing & branding company and has worked for Sundance since 2015. Most of the past line up have screened at Sundance and other major festivals. The goal is to support domestic and international filmmakers by providing them with a platform to receive much needed exposure. Each installment of the Series will feature 6-7 LIVE screenings per block, followed by a moderated filmmakers' panel discussion and the Audience Choice AWARD by Ballot. The event takes place at Vinegar Hill Theatre, which is the only and oldest true independent theatre in the city, established in 1976. The exterior and interior was beautifully revamped for modern times. Charlottesville's beautiful landscape serves as the perfect backdrop for a film event.
