FESTIVAL OF CINEMA NYC — the only NYC film festival supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, The NYS Council on the Arts, and the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs — seeks to aid “emerging filmmakers get more exposure and media attention, reach larger audiences, and meet other industry professionals who can help further their careers.”
▫️
Now in its seventh year, the 2023 festivities will take place from August 4-13, at the Regal UA Midway theatre (Forest Hills), with additional programming at the Queens Library at Forest Hills.
▫️
Among the selections, you’ll find GOOD GRIEF, a short written and directed by Rob Sharp. In it, we follow four women who have undergone a loss of a child. “After coming face-to-face with the vast emptiness of their despair, they must make a choice: whether to give in to the agony, or fight to rebuild their lives. Or will a third option present itself, when they learn the importance and true meaning of grief?” (You’ll have to attend the festival to find out.)
