Nassau Film Festival in Princeton, NJ, on May 20th and May 21st
2-Day Film Festival at The Historic Princeton Garden Theatre
Princeton, NJ, May 11, 2017 (Newswire.com) - The Nassau Film Festival will be running this year on Saturday, May 20, and Sunday, May 21, at the Princeton Garden Theatre. The festival is expanding this year to two days given the requests from festival goers to be able to show more films. 42 films this year will be screened from the 336 submissions received from countries in each of the six continents.
The highlights this year are:
The Nassau Film Festival has grown from 35 submissions in year one to 336 submissions this year. Festival goers asked last year about the possibility of expanding to two days given the quality of the 29 films that were screened. We are expanding the festival this year to two days and showing 42 films from filmmakers in six continents in animation, documentary and fiction films. I am so pleased to share these talented filmmakers and their films — which include some incredible works by students — with the community.
