YoFi Fest is a film festival that gives adult audiences a chance to watch and talk about new movies and to see new works by emerging artists. Screenings include features, shorts, music videos, animation and student works on all three days. Saturday and Sunday start with movies and workshops for kids in the morning. In the afternoons, along with screenings in two theaters, we’re offering a “mini film school” Each day of screenings is followed by an “after-party” that evening where filmmakers and VIP Pass holders get a chance to talk in a fun and casual setting at some of the best nearby restaurants and lounges. YoFi Fest is easy to get to, fun to hang out at and not to be missed.
