A very special thanks to all of our sponsors for making this event possible. It is very encouraging when so many businesses are still willing to give to support the arts even during a recession. Please take a minute to check out the sponsors page.
Nestled in the heart of the Cape Fear Region, Wilmington is one of the most spectacular places to be in the spring. Azaleas are blooming and the beaches are prime for surfing or sunning. Come spend a weekend in a town that is rich in history, especially film history. Take a tour of Screen Gems studios while you're here and don't miss Orton Plantation, where the filming of FIRESTARTER back in 1983 kicked off the local film industry.
The
Cape Fear Independent Film Network is a 501(c)3 Non-profit
