INDEPENDENT FILM FESTIVAL OF BOSTON

The Croisette, the Lido, and now . . . Somerville. In each place, the buzz is the same — the ineffable aura of excitement, expectation, and pure passion that distinguishes a world-class film festival. Now in its ninth year, the INDEPENDENT FILM FESTIVAL BOSTON runs from April 27 to May 4, boasting the usual, outstanding indie fare, including Michael Winterbottom's The Trip, Miranda July's The Future, and the inevitable unknown like Mike Ott's Littlerock, that everyone will know about after it shows here.
