We are thrilled to present the official film lineup for 12th Anniversary Big Eddy Film Festival held from September 28 – October 1, 2023! From documentaries to dramas, local films to internationals, and short films to features, BEFF presents a cinematic story for all curiosities.
In the summer of 1969, just one hundred miles south of Woodstock, The Harlem Cultural Festival was filmed in Mount Morris Park (now Marcus Garvey Park). The footage was never seen and largely forgotten–until now. This new documentary marks the directorial debut of Questlove, and won the 2021 Sundance Grand Jury Prize. Pre-screening farm-to-table dinner available.
An exciting evening of outdoor music from favorite indie film soundtracks. DJ Jason Tougaw will take over the audio waves inside the open air eatery in celebration of the BEFF’s 10th anniversary.
Udo Kier stars as a hairdresser who rediscovers himself (and looks gorgeous while doing so) in the third and final film in Stephen’s Ohio Trilogy (EDGE OF SEVENTEEN, GYPSY 83).
