Read Recap -->
*Please note that this is our first event at a new venue. Previously held at the People Lounge in LES for 3 years, we've now moved to Suffolk St at Subject. Last month we tried out a different venue and are hoping our audience will help us decide between the two for our permanent new venue.
IndieWorks screens short films produced by emerging filmmakers throughout New York. It provides a platform for those filmmakers to showcase their work in front of an audience and to network with individuals in the local film community.
It also allows other filmmakers to engage in thoughtful Q&A's with the featured filmmakers of the evening.
Free entry! Doors open at 6:30pm. Screening starts at 7:30pm and lasts roughly 2 hours. But stay as late as you'd like! We encourage mingling & networking after the screening in order to spark collaboration & support.
