Details
On January 21, 2024, the iconic Plaza Theater in Atlanta will host The Benefit Film Festival, a cinematic showcase designed to empower minority and female filmmakers within the vibrant Atlanta market. The festival features a compelling lineup of films featuring emerging talent from the Atlanta studio of Anthony Meindl’s Actor Workshop. The films embody unique narratives that align with the festival's mission of amplifying independent filmmaker voices. The afternoon will be divided into two screening "blocks," featuring the award-winning feature film Forgetting Christmas and six acclaimed short films: Rainbow Sun, Good Day, Samuel, Conflict, Christmas Cookies, and Right Where You Left Me. Q&A sessions following each block will provide attendees with insights into independent filmmaking and the creative process.
Tickets and donations for The Benefit Film Festival are available at www.thebenefitfilmfestival.com. Proceeds are reinvested back into the filmmakers, enabling them to continue contributing their voices to the world of cinema.
