A little late in announcing this, but better late than never.
Oxnard Indepdent Film Festival (OIFF) is having their 10th annual event!!!
However, there's been a minor change:
"After ten years of screening independent films, the Oxnard Independent Film Festival has decided to go on a short hiatus.
We feel lucky to have had the support of many wonderful people over the years. We want to thank everyone who has worked with us, written kind words about us, and inspired us.
During this break, we will be re-organizing our group to come back even stronger than before.
In 2008, we will be presenting a series of special screenings to revisit some of the award winning films from past festivals. Please keep visiting our website for all the details.
Thank you."
