In celebration of our silver anniversary, the Hamptons International Film Festival honored 25 years of film with a special screening series.
25 Years: 25 Films featured films from each year of the Festival (1993-2016) at top cultural organizations in Palm Beach, NYC, LA, and across the South Fork. We were proud to revisit these keystone films, which trace the evolution of the Festival over 25 years.
Notable friends of the Festival, filmmakers and special guests participated in exclusive talk-backs and Q&As following some screenings.
“We thought this would be a great opportunity to bring some of the best films of the last 25 years to moviegoers around the country,” said HIFF Executive Director Anne Chaisson. “While our hearts are in the Hamptons, our mission is to share great narratives and documentaries with our film-loving supporters everywhere.”
