Cucalorus Film Festival
Cucalorus, named one of the "Top 25 Coolest Film Festivals" by Moviemaker Magazine, is celebrating its 15th anniversary as an international film festival located in the historic, port city of Wilmington, NC. The festival is non-competitive to create a laid-back atmosphere and to foster open dialogue where filmmakers and audience feel free to share stories and socialize. Cucalorus provides a forum where film becomes a player in the social and political arena and offers a new voice for the South. Over 10,000 tickets were sold in 2008 and over 130 films will screen this November 11th-15th, 2009
ACE Films partners with Cucalorus Film Festival to host screenings in UNCW's Lumina Theater.
Tickets will be available at Sharky's Box Office on the first floor of the Fisher Student Center, next to the entrance for Lumina Theater. Tickets may also be purchased at www.etix.com.
