A look back at the 2024 Festival

In-person screenings and events took place April 10 - 14, 2024, plus virtual screenings the following week. Attendees were asked to pay what they could, and portions of donations went to the filmmakers. Most screenings and events occurred in the Lumière Hall at BBCO and accompanied by in-person Q&As with the filmmakers.
