Unfortunately due to our venue Naked City closing unexpectedly in December, we lost our monthly venue. We have been looking for a new venue for Cine City that is both affordable and flexible. We will update our supporters as soon as anything changes. 

The October Screening is the LAST REGULAR SCREENING of the year. The BEST OF is in NOVEMBER 2018

Cine City is a bi monthly event that screens a block of local films.

    This was a great opportunity! There's plenty of great short films to watch and Ardor Creative Media does a great job with turning out an enthusiastic audience to see them.

    This was a great way to show my film. It is free for local filmmakers. There was a good variety of short films. My film won first place! And I had good conversations with some other filmmakers.

    This festival is a total blast. It's intimate, but large enough that I've met really interesting people when I've attended. The audience is very engaged and the individual running the fest is super passionate about our local film scene. Highly recommended!
