The Sixth Annual Student Independent Film Festival is here!

We are excited to announce that August marks the 6th Annual Student Independent Film Festival (SIFF)! As you may know, SIFF is a seven-week collaborative project between Minerva Stage and Images Cinema, where local student filmmakers produce independent short films. The process culminates at a screening for the community on August 8th and 9h at Images Cinema.

SIFF is a seven-week collaborative project between Minerva Stage and Images Cinema, where local student filmmakers produce independent short films. The process culminates annually at a screening for the community during the second weekend of August at Images Cinema.
Since 2003 we have seen dozens of student independent films screened for the community at large: Film makers from Berkshire County to Boston, and from New York to California, have all submitted original pieces to the Festival.
