Edmond Town Hall Will Host Brookfield Film Festival

The fifth year of the Brookfield Film Festival (BFF), "Shorts & to the Point," planned for Friday through Sunday, April 5-7, will see a change in venue, as The Brookfield Theatre for the Arts (TBTA) has a full schedule this year and cannot accommodate the annual festival. 

As there were no other viable venues in Brookfield, this year’s screenings will be in Newtown’s Edmond Town Hall, according to Brookfield Arts Commission Chairman Mary Daniel.

The collection of short films will be shown in four screenings, one on Friday and two on both Saturday and Sunday.

The “Shorts and to the Point” program is not rated and is intended for an adult audience. Admission is $15 and refreshments will be served during intermission.

Seating is limited and reservations are suggested. Reservations can be made through Wednesday, April 3 by phone at 203-775-2895 or by email at ann.amorossi@gmail.com.

Before the festival begins, the Arts Commission is holding a Digital Video Workshop on creating short films. Thee six-hour sessions on March 22-24 will be led by Dr. JC Barone in the Western Connecticut State University Berkshire Hall. Contact Raymond Dori at 203-775-2019 to register.
