Mtn Craft Film Festival Returns This Weekend
The Mtn Craft Film Festival has returned once again to Clarksburg, West Virginia! Beginning on October 2nd and running through October 4th, the festival will showcase a wide variety of feature and short films that capture the spirit of Appalachia in its many forms. Best of all, this year, Mtn Craft Film Festival’s entire slate of programming is free, making it the largest free film festival in the state.
On Saturday, October 3, at 6:00pm, I will be moderating a panel featuring the Award Winners. Be sure to stick around for a conversation with filmmaker Pete Ohs, who is known for his indie films like Erupcja.
