22nd Annual Video Fest Presented by the Video Association of Dallas  

November 5, 2009

Thursday 7:00pm - 11:30pm

Detail: The oldest and largest video and film festival in the nation, VideoFest shows a diverse range of works by regional, national and international video and film artists that are hard to find at the local video store, the movie theater or on Netflix. Because VideoFest is different than a traditional film festival or just going to a movie, a designer will be creating a VideoFest set at the Angelika. Expect something different! For the second year in a row, the VideoFest will be presented thru I-Tunes. A curated look at YouTube, a feature about the man behind the Texas Rangers’ dot race, Romanians becoming Israelis, a retrospective and appearance from The Art Guys, a documentary about drug companies racing to create a female orgasm pill, the tale of how the American financial system went awry, a history of Jews in Dallas, computer animation compilations from Siggraph and local high schools and colleges, museum commissioned film criticism reported via film, the heckled actor Jamie Kennedy heckles back, the gospel of not-spending, and much more will be shown on the screens and through video installations throughout the Angelika. Patrons may purchase day passes ($25 or $35 depending on day) or All-Festival passes ($75) for over 150 programs making this Festival the best deal in town. Buy tickets online in advance or at the door day of show. Visit www.videofest.org for more information or call 214-428-8700.
