The Isle of Wight Film Festival is currently scrutinising film entries, received from all over the world, for its 2014 episode, to be held in August alongside Ventnor Fringe.
To whet our appetites for what’s to come the IOWFF team is holding a special event on Saturday (14th June) when organisers will screen the best films of the 2013 festival and tell us what’s lined up for this year to inspire and entertain us.
Bruce Webb the festival director said:
“This screening shows the truly International scope of the festival, and in 2014 we’re adding another day to the festival so we can show more films, and therefore have more overseas guests. We’re also excited to announce a collaboration between Portsmouth Film Society with outdoor screenings, and the confirmation of the 1970’s classic, shot on the Island starring David Essex and Ringo Starr – That’ll Be The Day”
The event kicks off at 20:00 at Ventnor Arts Club, 13 High St Ventnor. All are welcome and the bar is open throughout the screenings and afterwards until late.
Stephen Izatt of Ventnor Arts Club said:
“It’ll be great to watch these films in comfort, on our big screen and an opportunity for film makers and enthusiasts to meet up, do a little networking and perhaps inspire some productive collaborations”.
