5th Annual BendFilm Festival:
October 9-12, 2008
Against the backdrop of the majestic Cascade Mountains, the rustic recreational haven of Bend, Oregon, is transformed for four days into a bustling center for filmmakers and film lovers alike. The 2007 BendFilm Festival featured over 85 films on four screens, filmmaking lectures, a frenzy of parties, and special events for thousands of alternative cinema lovers.
The BendFilm Festival audience is unique in the Central Oregon region. Our festival attracts a group of well-informed media consumers who seek alternatives to mainstream sources of information and entertainment, and who enjoy supporting the arts through their patronage.
