There’s something special about summer. We’re not sure whether it’s the warmer weather, the longer days, or something else a bit more magical, but summer just has that feeling of infinite potential. Maybe it’s because it’s fleeting? There’s only one summer season every year, so you know deep down that you better make the most of it! We’re certainly making the most of ours and we’re inviting you to come along with us.
Below you’ll find a rundown of everything we’ve got planned for this summer. From continuing our international Festivals to screening some Sundance-supported favorites in Utah. And if you’re staying close to home this season, stay tuned to see if our Shorts and Indigenous tours are coming to a theater near you.
Mark your calendars!
