Come early and enjoy Food and drink at Emerson Grill North. Owner, Robin Chopus, is generously donating 20% of EGN's proceed to the BFF. Tell her you're going to the Academy Shorts Films in her main restaurant, The Emerson Grill, and she'll donate 20% to the BFF, as well. Thanks, Robin!

Tickets available at Cactus Record and day of show 1 hour before screening in Emerson Lobby.

Culled from 1000 entries, the ten-day event, which will be held at the historic Wilma Theatre in downtown Missoula, features 130 short and feature length non-fiction films from over thirty countries.

Special features at this years event include Indigenous Visions: Films By Native American Filmmakers. a retrospective of films by prolific filmmaker Doug Pray (Art & Copy, Scratch, Hype!), a presentation of ephemeral documentary shorts by archivist Rick Prelinger, and live musical accompaniment to Dziga Vertov’s Soviet propaganda classic Man With A Movie Camera (1929), performed by Alloy Orchestra.
