The Prescott Film Festival will be hosting three days of exciting independent films, filmmakers, screenwriters and actors at their multi-day festival this year.
Opening Night:
An Opening Night Gala will be held Friday night at the Hotel St. Michael. Immediately after the Gala, Film Festival patrons will walk up to the newly renovated and historical Elks Opera House to enjoy two very special films. Academy Award winning filmmaker Chuck Workman will be bringing his short film, Precious Images to share with audiences, and will have a question and answer period following the film. The evenings feature will be announced in July.
Saturday and Sunday:
Approximately 50 independent films will screen around downtown Prescott all day Saturday and all day Sunday. Saturday morning will open with the family film, Pearl, about the youngest pilot in aviation history, Pearl Carter Scott, a Choctaw farm girl in the 1920’s who learned to love flight from a chance encounter with world famous aviator Wiley Post. Other independent films will screen all day and into the evening at the Elks Opera House and Hendrix Auditorium.
Wine Tasting and Special Film:
Saturday evening’s Premier Event is a special screening of Blood into Wine, the hilarious documentary about the Arizona Stronghold Vineyard in Jerome started by rock star Maynard Keenan of Tool, and Prescott College graduate Eric Glomski. A wine tasting of AZ Stronghold wines will precede the film. Some special guests are scheduled to appear at the screening for a Q&A after the film. The event will be held at the Yavapai College Performance Hall.
Workshops:
Two free workshops will be held the day before the festival, on Thursday August 5th; One on acting for film, (conducted by the directors of the award winning film, The Red Machine, and the other on producing your first short film. On Friday morning the festival will sponsor a Screenwriting Workshop/lecture, with a nominal fee of $5.00. Part of the funds collected for this workshop will benefit Steppingstones, a Prescott area battered women’s shelter. Tickets can be picked up/purchased at the Prescott Convention and Visitor’s Bureau at the corner of Gurley and Cortez. Call (928) 778-2929 for details.
