Every year at the Lindsey Film Festival is devoted to filmmakers, but this year we have decided to make that our mantra, so we are calling it “The Year of the Filmmaker.” If you are a regular at our event, you might notice that we haven’t made a major announcement about a celebrity event. But if you hop over to our screening schedule, you’ll see we have 18 films selected from many, many more submitted for the festival, and having been judged the best among their categories, each is a celebrity event. Most of those screenings will have the filmmaker in attendance – we will have a record number of filmmakers on hand this year – and those filmmakers will participate in Q&A’s after their films screen, and each Q&A is a celebrity event. On Friday evening, we will do something new at the festival; we have brought in a film to screen out of competition purely for the entertainment of our audiences. Director Aaron Wolf and star Mark Gessner will be here with their hilarious, award winning film “Guest House,” and that is a celebrity event. Our Friday table read of the winning screenplays will include notable actors Danny Vinson, Natalie Canerday, and Ethan Marten in various roles, joined by UNA student actors, and that is a celebrity event. So if have been waiting for the “big announcement” about what star the festival is bringing to this year’s event, here it is. You’re going to so overwhelmed by the number of celebrity events this year, you won’t know how to choose; we suggest you avoid the stress and just come to them all!
