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.
Catherine is reeling from the death of her father and a breakup. She seeks solitude at the lake house of her close friend Virginia. Overcome by delusions and memories of happier times, and wary of Virginia’s relationship with a neighbor, Catherine edges closer and closer to a complete psychological breakdown. Director Alex Ross Perry, on the heels of last years critical hit Listen Up Philip, channels Roman Polanski and Ingmar Bergman in this tense paranoid thriller about poisonous codependency and modern upper-class narcissism.
