“Dallas film audiences are among the most knowledgeable, diverse, and enthusiastic in the entire country,” said James Faust, Artistic Director of the Dallas Film Society. “Therefore, programming the Dallas International Film Festival is always an exercise in striking a balance by finding films that appeal to the savvy cinephile, and the weekend escape-seeking film fan, as well as everyone in between. This year, we have already had great success securing films that impressed us at other prominent film festivals around the world, to discovering brand new gems, which will make their debut right here at DIFF.”
