Event: DC Independent Film Festival

This isn't my usual cup of tea here at East Coast Blogging, more like Shana's over at The DC Concierge, but in any case this week is the 2008 DC Independent Film Festival .  Here are the details.

What is the DC Independent Film Festival?

The Washington, DC Independent Film Festival celebrates the vision, the creativity and the highest level of independent filmmaking. This year's festival is our 10th anniversary and we will again provide an event in the city where you, the public, can immerse yourself in independent film culture. There will be films, discussions with filmmakers and seminars. This is also the second year we've included a music festival, where independent musicians perform their latest music. Come and experience DC's most unique film event.
