Online film festival to screen state-made movies

Home » Blog » Online film festival to screen state-made movies

July 8, 2021

The LAVA Center will host the Open Screen Film Festival starting Sunday and running through July 25. The event is an online showcase of Massachusetts filmmaking talent, from students to professionals and everyone in between.

This festival will function like an open mic, in that there was no competitive selection process — all appropriate films that were submitted will be screened. The festival will screen short films by local filmmakers Daryl Beck, Elizabeth “Buffy” Cautela, Matt Demko, Rocco Desgres, Ian Hamilton, Theo Janke, JuPong Lin, Brandon Macey, Robert Markey, Wally Marzano-Lesnevich, Gloria Matlock, Jean Minuchin, Michael Nix, Vanessa Query, Maria Servellon and the Four Rivers Charter Public School Class of 2021.
