COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Columbus Community Film Series and YES Cinema are presenting the AMPLIFY Film Festival starting this Friday, May 14, and continuing through May 20, in Columbus. The goal in launching the festival is to celebrate the full human experience including the diverse voices in the community.
Lead Coordinator Alyse Tucker Bounds, says, “The educational material in the festival is a fun and exciting way to learn about the often marginalized voices in the city of Columbus. We are excited to debut a documentary (Crossroads Stories) about our town in tandem with Oscar-nominated films and family favorites. There’s something for everyone.”
Seating is limited to 60, due to COVID-19 precautions. Masks are required and attendees are expected to social distance. There will also be two virtual showings for those who choose to remain home.
