Cheryl Cage, Candidate for AZ State Senate, Speaks at ArtFare Event

Dear ARTFARE Supporters:

I want to thank you for the opportunity to speak last night at
ARTFARE. It was wonderful to be around such a passionate, creative
group of people and to learn more about what the arts community is
doing to develop the film industry here.

As I discussed last night, it is vital that individuals who care about
the arts become political active. The 2010 election is one of the most
vital in Arizona’s history. We MUST elect people who care about
PUBLIC education, our universities, solar and new technologies and the
arts.

Please take a moment to think about how YOU can get involved!
Together we can make a wonderful positive impact in the future of
Arizona.

Candidate (D) Arizona State Senate LD-26

ARIZONA UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL RETURNS FOR A SECOND YEAR TO SCREEN THE BEST OF UNDERGROUND AND INDEPENDENT CULT CINEMA!

ARIZONA UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL 2009

The Rules of Cinema Will Be Broken!

TUCSON, AZ – The Arizona Underground Film Festival returns for a second year to screen the best of underground and cult independent cinema in Tucson, AZ from Nov. 2th through the 7th. From the bizarre to the beautiful, from shorts to features, films from all corners of the globe will embrace screens in Tucson the first week of November. Locations for the festival are The Loft Cinema, Crossroads Cinema, The Screening Room, and other locations in downtown Tucson. For a complete rundown of the schedule including times and all locations, visit www.azundergroundfilmfest.com

After a successful first year in 2008, founder, festival director and acclaimed independent filmmaker, David Pike, decided to pursue another year of the film festival to give Tucson a taste of the eclectic and edgy side of filmmaking. The festival’s mission is to showcase the work of filmmakers with defiantly independent visions with films that challenge the audience, break the rules and offer something different than a standard Hollywood movie.

Many filmmakers and actors will be in attendance this year including William Forsythe (Devil’s Rejects, Halloween, Raising Arizona), Noah Segan (Cabin Fever 2, Deadgirl), and others still yet to be announced. There will also be many local to international filmmakers making appearances with their films and doing Q&A’s with the audience.

For more information about this topic, please contact Festival Director David Pike at info@azundergroundfilmfest.com or Co-Festival Director Michael Hojjatie at hailthehodge@gmail.com.
