From May 1-31, 2022, FACETS’ 50% off DVD sale will feature Chicago-based films in the collection, including all the films featured in the FACETS Label Presents: Real Chicago series.
It’s our anniversary, but it takes an entire community to make independent film thrive in Chicago and beyond.
FACETS celebrates its 47th anniversary this May on the 20th. Even though it’s our anniversary, we wanted to take the month of May to present special screenings and events that not only put a spotlight on FACETS and founder Milos Stehlik’s groundbreaking work over the decades. But also on the films, people, and members of the wider community who keep Chicago independent film truly independent.
Special films series, screenings, and events include FACETS 47th Anniversary Celebration screening of Steve James’ Life Itself (2014) and three film series championing FACETS’ and the wider Chicago independent film community’s legacy: Milos’s Picks, Kartemquin Films X Full Spectrum Features, and FACETS Label Presents: Real Chicago. We’ll also be hosting a special anniversary edition of our monthly, free Film Trivia series, followed by a screening of the FACETS release of Valie Export’s Invisible Adversaries, and throughout the month a special collection of FACETS DVDs will be on sale for 50% off.
All screenings and events take place at FACETS (1517 W. Fullerton). Stop on by and celebrate with us!
