Come see the year's best global and local independent cinema! White River Indie Film festival (WRIF) has joined forces with JAM and celebrates its 18th birthday with first-time features from Sundance, Venice, and Toronto, and top-tier works by local filmmakers that you won’t see anywhere else. Panel discussions and talkbacks with directors are back, along with brunches and after-parties for mingling with fellow film lovers and filmmakers. If you love film and want to see where it's headed, there's no better place to be this week.
