IFP at reRun

IFP at reRun provides filmmakers with the opportunity to open their film for a week-run at Dumbo, Brooklyn’s reRun Theater (147 Front St.). All programmed films will receive marketing, press, and career support from IFP, Filmmaker Magazine, and the reRun Theater (for a full list of benefits, click here).

All filmmakers selected for IFP at reRun will retain all rights to their film, and are completely free to pursue other screening opportunities in tandem with their opening at reRun.
