Six Days Left to Donate to the Clifton Film Fest Kickstarter!

They have $611 out of a $1500 goal.

by James Cullum

The fifth annual Clifton Film Festival needs a little less than $1,000 in order to operate smoothly. Prizes for donating to its Kickstarter campaign include free tickets to the event and a chance to mingle with the filmmakers and actors.

"Fundraising has been going good! We have a little ways to go, but I feel confident we will make our goal,” said festival founder Dani Weinberg. “The community has been so supportive and we have really awesome rewards for pledging, such as, meeting the filmmakers in the VIP room, our amazingly soft t-shirts, ticket packages, and marketing for individuals or their company on the big screen!”
