Submitted by Silver City Community Film Festival
After a successful launch last October, the Silver City Community Film Festival is slated to present twice as many independent, regionally produced films as last year. The selections were culled from nearly four times as many submissions.
According to Festival Director Kim Ryan, organizers were confident last year's inaugural event would draw out a lot of hidden cinematic talent but they were "pleasantly surprised" that, in its first year, they were able to fill three days with original, locally-made content.
