Over a period of four days from November 6th through the 9th, the festival includes truly independent features and shorts in all genres from around the world.

The Lake Theater opened in 1949 as a single screen venue and remained popular as a neighborhood house for many years. The Lake was always considered a step above many other neighborhood houses. Eventually the Lake grew from one screen, to three, to seven. This historic building, now called the Atlas Cinemas Lakeshore 7, will take you back a few years while offering all the modern conveniences you come to expect. The Ohio Independent Film Festival is proud to partner with Atlas Cinemas to give you the best possible viewing experience of the best independent films from around the world.

After everyone involved had an excellent experience, Atlas Cinemas and Independent Pictures immediately started to plan a return for this year. With 12 feature length films and over 40 shorts, this years festival brings a mix of local, regional and international talent to the screen. Along with all this amazing content for festival goers to experience, Independent Pictures has also planned several Q&A sessions with filmmakers and a special panel discussion after the important documentary "Project: Ice" which is scheduled to aire Saturday, November 8th at 8pm on the BIG Screen in XXDXP.
