The Portland Experimental Film Festival is an experiment started by Matt McCormick. It has been through a few reincarnations with new organizers. That's all good, and we are looking forward to this year's event.
The festival spans Wednesday May 28-Sunday June 1 with sit down showings, artful installations at Disjecta + live music, participatory workshops, family-friendly programs, a window installation on Alberta and after parties.
An always fun element of the festival is the bracketed throwdown, film on film, competitions, audience-judged, by you!
I'll not repeat the schedule available on the website. http://effportland.com/?p=801#install
Admissions are extremely reasonable and some events are free.
