The 17th Annual Sidewalk Film Festival August 28-30
Sidewalk Film Festival is produced by the Alabama Moving Image Association, a federally recognized 501c3 non-profit organization with a mission to inspire, encourage and support filmgoers, the city of Birmingham and the filmmaking community. In addition to hosting the annual film festival, we host monthly networking and educational events, a monthly documentary series, short film and screenwriting competitions, manage a youth board and a variety of other year-round programs.
Tickets sales to our events cover approximately 1/3 of our annual operating cash budget, so we depend on corporate sponsors, grant-making organizations and individuals like you to survive. if you’d like to know more about supporting Sidewalk, please contact us at sidewalk@sidewalkfest.com.
For 14 years, the Angulo family's 7 children were rarely allowed to leave their tiny, cluttered apartment on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. Their father possessed the only key to the locked front door. In one year they didn’t leave at all. Home-schooled, but allowed to watch movies when not in class, the 6 brothers did so... endlessly. In April of 2010, led by 15-year-old Mukunda, against their father's orders, the siblings began exploring the outside world. And everything changed. The Wolfpack tells the extraordinary life-is-stranger-than-fiction tale of the Angulo brothers.
