ALUMNI SCREENING/SCREAMING NIGHT

Location: Building 1, Main Theater

Join us on Tuesday, October 15th starting at 4pm, for our last Alumni Screening Night of the year! Free entry, free refreshments, and even a few surprises...

The evening kicks off at 4pm with Before It's Too Late, a somber sports drama directed by 2021 alum, Demario Mclain. Next, we continue with a gritty depiction of the seedy African underworld in Ato Kwabena, a feature-length movie directed by 2017 alum Evans Hermann Condobery followed by the film's cast and crew Q&A moderated by TV host and former Miss Kenya, Rachel Mbuki.

Then, at 7pm, LAFS gets into the Halloween spirit with two horror-themed alumni films. First, we screen 2024 alum Ariel Harris' acclaimed vampire short, Pledge: Change is Good, which has hauled 12 festival placements since it premiered last fall. Our night concludes with the world premiere and cast and crew Q&A of supernatural feature film Unholy Song, executive produced by 2019 alum Matthew Bingham and directed by famed cult horror director Arthur G. Night.
   
If you love film and horror, come out and support your fellow LAFS filmmakers, because this night is for you!
