Weekend Fun: Brooklyn Film Fest takes on ‘classic’ Hollywood, positions itself ‘3000 miles away’

Watch the promos crated by TBWA\Chiat\Day New York for the event that kicks off today

We got to know of the Brooklyn Film Festival (BFF), an annual competitive festival for independent filmmakers, only because of its promos. So here they are.

The fest runs from 29 May to 7 June 2015. Given the strong positioning statement the promos make, one might want to check out the films that do well at the BFF.

 
Have a wonderful weekend.
