About this event
The Chicago International Film Festival is presented by Cinema/Chicago, a non-profit devoted to international and independent cinema. Screenings fill AMC NEWCITY 14, the Gene Siskel Film Center, the Music Box Theatre, the Chicago History Museum, the Harold Washington Library and the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts at the University of Chicago. The program includes Martin McDonagh's Wild Horse Nine, Jordan Firstman's Club Kid, Tim Blake Nelson's The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd and Siân Heder's Being Heumann.
Our take: Look for the free Community Cinema screenings at the National Museum of Mexican Art and Kennedy-King College.
