Cleveland International Film Festival kicks off in new venue

For the first time since 2019, the Cleveland International Film Festival is back in-person, this time with a new home. From 1991-2019, the festival was held at Tower City Cinemas, where 10 screens showcased the work of filmmakers. However, in 2019, the festival's board made the decision to move the festival to Playhouse Square. Patrick Shepherd, associate director of the festival, says the decision was made because "our location was uncertain over at Tower City," adding that the event had outgrown the space. Now, CIFF will occupy six spaces in Playhouse Square, a seemingly full circle moment. "Many of these theaters were built as movie palaces and vaudeville stages in the 1920s, and they were saved from the wrecking ball in the 1970s," Shepherd noted. "And here we are, in 2022, returning them to their original purpose of screening films." Isabel Lawrence reports: https://www.wkyc.com/article/entertai...
