There's no guarantee they'll be released in theaters near you, and who knows when they'll be released on DVD. The Stony Brook Film Festival could be your only shot at seeing the 33 indie films, foreign films, short films, and documentaries being screened this year at the festival.
Now in its 17th year, the festival typically draws film lovers from all over Long Island to Stony Brook University's Staller Center for the Arts. Will you be among them? There are two ways to enjoy the Stony Brook Film Festival: buy a 10-day pass ($80), or buy tickets to individual films ($7–$9). As of Tuesday morning, 10-day passes are still available.
For descriptions and more details on individual films, visit Three Village Patch each day.
