What if they held a local film festival, and there were no local films?
In August, local film production professionals -- including frequent City Weekly contributor Trevor Hale -- are presenting the Salt Lake City Film Festival at venues including the Tower Theatre, Fort Douglas Post Theater and Main Library. Submissions are already coming in ahead of the June 30 deadline, but according to a current press release, exactly zero local filmmakers are among them. C'mon Utah auteurs, you gotta represent.
Visit the festival Website for more information on submitting your films for consideration.
