This is a group for anyone interested in intelligent indie Art films. The idea is to develop an indie film-making culture & industry in Northampton and Pioneer Valley. I started this group because, quite frankly, I'm fed-up with the films from Hollywood and long for the days when films were magical, thought-provoking, engaging, meaningful, and artistic - not dumb entertainment. Looking forward to meeting fellow Artfilm enthusiasts, and those who enjoy indie films and world cinema.

For those of us who enjoy indie films, this is the perfect venue. Let's get together and see interesting and thought provoking cinema while supporting this local gem. We'll also be meeting either before or after each show at Cadiz, the tapas restaurant next door.

Social media is empowering filmmakers in a number of ways through the complete filmmaking cycle; fundraising for films, new ideas for productions and story telling, distribution, marketing, PR and exhibition. This MeetUp will explore this combination. Let's bring together filmmakers, technologists and social media wizards, united by a love of cinema, and interested in exploring this convergence .
