The Syracuse International Film and Video Festival comes to the Hamilton Theater on Tuesday, March 30 at 7:00pm. Now in its seventh year, the festival showcases film and video selected from among more than 800 entries from at least 30 countries. Admission is free, seating may be limited.

Hamilton Theater is among a select group of theaters invited to host a pre-screening event. Audience members will join the festival's professional pre-screening team in previewing a series of submissions for the 2010 festival. Categories include documentary, short fiction, animation, young filmmakers and more. Hamilton native Arthur Zimmer and Festival Director Owen Shapiro (with Christine Fawcett in photo) will be on hand to introduce the films and share professional insights.

"We are delighted to host an event again this year as part of this exceptional film festival," said Hamilton Theater's Chuck Fox. "This will be a treat for all those interested in film and video as art forms, and for those who simply enjoy independent film." Fox added that the theater will host an evening this fall featuring the Best of the Fest from 2009.
