The 2016 LA Film Festival will screen a diverse slate of feature films, shorts and web series, along with programs such as the Filmmaker Retreat, Coffee Talks and Master Classes. The Festival runs June 1-9, 2016 at the ArcLight Cinemas. Our Programming team, led by Roya Rastegar and Jennifer Cochis, killed it, said Festival Director, Stephanie Allain. The competition lineup of 42 world premieres echoes Film Independent s mission to celebrate diversity and showcases a multitude of innovative, fresh voices. We can t wait to share these films with audiences and industry alike, and, following years which saw films like Meet the Patels, Code Black, Nightingale, The Drew, Out of My Hand and French Dirty acquired out of the Festival, are confident that 2016 will mark our best Festival yet. "Discovering storytellers is our raison d être, said Roya Rastegar, Director of Programming. We invest a great deal to learn about filmmaking communities across the globe. We look for films with conviction in perspective, style and voice. "Curating films for LA audiences is so special because Angelenos have a uniquely homegrown love of cinema," added Creative Director, Jennifer Cochis. "It's with true film lovers in mind that we program: from political theater to musical theater, we're highlighting storytelling in all its forms." The 2016 LA Film Festival, which will have its headquarters at the ArcLight Culver City, announces a diverse slate of 56 feature films, 58 short films and 13 short episodic works representing 28 countries. Previously announced, the Opening Night Film is the World Premiere of Ricardo De Monrtreuil s Lowriders, sponsored by Jaeger-LeCoultre. This year s Guest Director is Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station, Creed) and Ava DuVernay
2 (Selma, Middle of Nowhere) and Array Releasing will receive the Spirit of Independence Award. More special screenings and programs will be announced in the coming weeks. The Festival s five competitions feature 42 World Premieres. Across the five feature competition categories, 43% of the films are directed by women and 38% of the films are directed by people of color. This year, LA Film Festival Director Stephanie Allain is joined by Creative Director Jennifer Cochis, Director of Programming Roya Rastegar and Managing Director Ralph Rivera.
