The 28th LA Indie Film Festival runs November 12-15 at Let Live Theater, and it exists because independent cinema needs rooms where the audience comes to find something they did not know they were looking for. Four days of features, shorts, documentaries, and first films by directors whose names you have never heard -- and at least one of those names will matter in five years.
The festival sits at the intersection of scrappy ambition and genuine craft. Filmmaker Q-and-As follow most screenings, and the crowd splits between industry people scouting and civilians who just wanted to see something that was not made by a committee. There is no red carpet. The popcorn is real. The films are the kind you tell one specific friend about afterward.
