2009 CineVegas Dates Set, Submissions Sought
People are prone to think that Las Vegas is lacking in culture but the organizers of the annual CineVegas Film Festival have done their best to make sure that Sin City gets its fair share every summer.
Set to take place June 11-20, next year’s cinematic soiree will be hosted by the Palms Casino Resort and its movie house partner Brenden Theatres. The full schedule of events will be released at a later date and will include premieres, parties and red carpet ceremonies at various locations in the city.
The festival turns 11 years old in 2009 and since its inception has evolved into a highly anticipated avant-garde event that prides itself on presenting works that test the bounds of traditional cinema. Legendary filmmaker Dennis Hopper continues to hold the title of Chariman of the Creative Advisory Board and has been an advocate for the festival since he was honored in 2003 with the Marquee Award for lifetime achievement.
Films will be accepted in the categories of feature film, documentary, short film and Nevada filmmaking short with cash prizes totaling $14,000 up for grabs. Entries will be accepted from Dec. 1, 2008 to Mar. 1, 2009 through Withoutabox’s International Festival Submissions System at www.withoutabox.com
