Since the 1 of Feb. the Spokane International Film Festival has been bringing world cinema to the Inland Northwest for its 15th year.
This is a community effort, made possible by the all-volunteer staff, local artists, and sponsors. SFCC Interim Dean Bonnie Brunt and organizer of the SFCC Film Festival said, “I really think this has something for everyone.”
While much of the festival is over, there’s still a variety of films being shown at the Magic Lantern Theatre, located at 25 W. Main St., from Feb 8 through Feb 10, including the festival closing party on Feb 9 and the Saranac Public House and The Community Building on 21 W. Main, after the showing of Let My People Go! at 7 p.m.
On Feb 10, the world premier of Sitting Between Two Chairs will be shown at the Magic Lantern Theatre, a documentary telling the story of world-renowned Russian photojournalist Leonid Bergoltsev who now lives in America and cannot return to his homeland after documenting the Soviet Union during the height of the Cold War.
All shows are $10, For more information about SpIFF, visit spokanefilmfestival.org.
