From February 15 to 18, 2024, WRIF (White River Indie Films) will return to JAM – Junction Arts & Media and the Briggs Opera House with an invigorating and diverse curation of 2023's best global indie cinema, including unreleased features from Cannes, New York, and Berlin Film Festivals, and top-tier work by local filmmakers. There will be late-night parties and brunches for mingling with filmmakers and film lovers alike. For the first time ever, WRIF will offer a curated “Vermont Midnight” selection of subversive, not-so-late-night features and cult classics starting after 8:00 PM. WRIF aims to bring the Upper Valley movies that hit close to home – literally.

Program director Travis Weedon says, “we’re casting a wide net of exceptional cinema this year, from celebrated Oscar nominees to underground gems. Since we’re kicking things off Valentine’s weekend, our overarching theme is love. Whether that’s romantic, sweetly platonic, love for one’s community or family, or, especially, radical acts of self-love, this year we hope to bring people together and leave their hearts full.”
