About [Edit]
OPEN CINEMA
Launched in September 2003 OPEN CINEMA screens thought-provoking films once a month at Hermann’s Jazz Club followed by an open forum discussion with filmmakers, local individuals, organizations and experts. Inspired by documentary filmmaker Mandy Leith’s vision, this innovative and popular community screening event has been an outstanding success, consistently drawing capacity crowds of all ages and significant interest from the filmmaking community, sponsors, local press and grassroots organizations.
OPEN CINEMA’S vision includes exploring the use of film, video and the Internet as a conduit for community building, forming a collaborative global network for locally-owned community screening initiatives and developing alternative funding and distribution models for documentary film.
