Clatskanie Indie Film Festival

The Clatskanie Cultural Center will host an indie film festival on Saturday,
August 17th, organized by filmmakers Ray and Migdalia Etheridge. The day long event will showcase several short films, produced by indie filmmakers from across the U.S., including several from Oregon. Genres include comedy, horror and drama, as well as documentaries and animation. The films for the program were selected by a panel of 5 judges, who graded each film on its technical quality, acting, script development, and entertainment value. The festival received nearly 100 entries, and films with the highest scores are being shown. Awards in various categories will be presented after each block of films. The Clatskanie Cultural Center is located at 75 S. Nehalem. Doors open at 12:45pm for the 1pm show, and the second program is at 3pm. Films are different in each program, and both shows are free. The Etheridges warn that many of the films contain “adult” language or subject matter, and therefore are not recommended for children. For further information, go to www.EtheridgeProductions.com
