Over the course of three days, the festival will screen three feature films: “It Happened One Weekend” by Zac Cooper, “Cold Cross” by Dylan Query and “Pursuit of Freedom” by George A. Johnson.

Q&A sessions will be held at the end of each screening. The films shown at the festival are not rated and may contain some mature content. Descriptions for each film can be found at the Hoosier Films Annual Festival website.
Tickets can be purchased individually for each day at $19 dollars for an individual short film block, $23 dollars for an individual featured film, and $123 dollars for a package to attend all events all three days. More information can be found through the Buskirk-Chumley Theater website.
