 | Welcome to the inaugural year of the Eau Claire World Film Festival, proudly becoming a part of the vibrant and nationally renowned arts scene centered here in the Chippewa Valley of Western Wisconsin. We are excited to bring a permanent, major, international film festival to Eau Claire, Wisconsin. A vast array of jury-selected, high-quality narrative and documentary films will transport you through Europe, the Middle East, the Far East, Latin America, Australia, Russia, and back home again - and your votes will enable us to crown winners. The beautiful & historic Micon Downtown theater will be our primary venue, with additional events planned for the Oxbow Hotel, The Lismore Hotel, Caffe Tempo, and University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. |
Our special guest on Saturday, September 30 is Minnesota-born Hollywood film director, David Burton Morris. In his 20-plus feature film career, Burton Morris has won the Sundance Film Festival, worked with Ben Affleck, Brooke Shields, Fred Willard, Michelle Phillips, Dylan McDermott, Jamie Gertz and Keri Russel among others, and lived to tell innumerable stories of the trials and tribulations of Hollywood. On Saturday at 7pm, enjoy an intimate conversation with Burton Morris, moderated by journalist Brian Lambert, after a screening of his groundbreaking indie hit, Patti Rocks (1988).
Additionally, on Sunday, October 1, we have scheduled a special screening of Cheeseheads - the Documentary. Join director John Mitchell - question and answer apres - and his comedy that celebrates all-things-Wisconsin for our festival finale at 2pm.
Apres parties are scheduled for each evening of the festival, at locations such as The Lismore Hotel.
We’re offering special inaugural year pricing of only $32 for a VIP All Festival Pass. (Tickets to individual screenings also available.)
