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.
Applesauce examines the chain reaction of distrust, deceit, and severed body parts that ensues when people begin to discuss the worst thing they’ve ever done. A dark, energetic, often indecorous comedy, Applesauce is 90 minutes of the most captivating, well-written bizarreness to hit the screen... well since Director Onur Tukel’s last festival favorite, Summer Of Blood. A skillfully crafted mash up of Woody Allen’s Manhattan Murder Mystery and Curb Your Enthusiasm meets The Maltese Falcon, Applesauce premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this year.
Onur Tukel is an American actor, painter, and filmmaker. A notable figure in the New York City independent film community, Tukel's films often deal with issues of gender and relationships.
