The 46th Denver Film Festival returns this November 3-12 with the best in cinema of the year, creative conversations with award-winning filmmakers in attendance, and carefully curated events for a 10-day cinematic extravaganza! This year's immersive program, which has featured xr projects since 2017, presents two immersive theater pieces: CASTING by Koryn Wicks: https://denverfilmfestival.eventive.org/films/65144d6fff172d0053420369 Casting invites a small audience of up to 12 participants to see whether they have that star power it takes to book the big gig. Absurd and poignant, Casting is an intimate, immersive experience that invites attendees to explore the choices we make when we want to stand out and those we make when we want to connect. The experience combines theater, dance, and interactive sound and video design. 40 WATTS FROM NOWHERE by Mister & Mischief https://denverfilmfestival.eventive.org/schedule/651dddf1a2493d007aec5929 40 Watts From Nowhere puts you in the shoes of 90s counterculture icon Sue Carpenter who found herself leading a double life: magazine writer by day, pirate radio host by night. With her illegal station KBLT, Sue captured the attention of misfit music lovers from every walk of life . . . and the authorities.

Your favorite non-profit arthouse org bringing you #Denver's best indie film programming at the #SieFilmCenter, Denver Film Festival, #FilmOnTheRocks, and more! Each year's Denver Film Festival in November features a VR Gallery and Immersive program as part of its lineup.

In addition, the DFS organizes annual festivals such as Film on the Rocks, a cinema/concert series held throughout the summer at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Which leads up to November’s flagship event: the Denver Film Festival, a twelve-day roster of international screenings, red-carpet premieres and awards ceremonies—among them the prestigious Krzysztof Kieslowski Award for Best Feature Film, the Maysles Brothers Award for Best Documentary and the achievement-based John Cassavetes Award.
