WATERVILLE — The Maine Film Center (MFC) announces the dates of the 25th annual Maine International Film Festival (MIFF), which will be held July 8-17 in Waterville at Railroad Square Cinema and the Waterville Opera House, in Skowhegan at the Skowhegan Drive-In Theater, and online. Festival passes and packages are now available to pre-order via the Festival’s website, MIFF.org.
Throughout 10 days in July, Festival attendees will have the opportunity to see a unique slate of approximately 100 films, including premieres, made-in-Maine features, classic revivals, and short films from around the world.
This year will be not only MIFF’s 25th anniversary, but also the last year at Railroad Square Cinema before the Maine Film Center moves to the new Paul J. Schupf Art Center in downtown Waterville.
“We couldn’t be prouder to return to a full-scale festival for our 25th anniversary,” said Mike Perreault, Executive Director of the Maine Film Center. “This celebration of film brings art and storytelling to Maine that might otherwise not be enjoyed by audiences here. And our new Tourmaline Prize will provide additional support to independent filmmakers by celebrating the best made-in-Maine films.”
The complete Festival lineup and individual ticket sales will be available mid-June. MIFF is currently accepting film submissions through April 22 via FilmFreeway.com/MIFF.
