coLAB film festival is a series that aims to showcase and support local film while bridging Hub City artists with national and international figures. Our aim is to provide filmmakers, supporters, artists, and audiences with a space to communicate, collaborate and share in the diverse experience of film. We aim to empower our community while sharing in a communal conversation about film. Film is meant to be shared, deliberated, and challenged—so let’s do just that.
coLAB film festival: Emerging Jersey Film is first within a triannual short film festival series. Our first festival thematically will showcase New Jersey films. After screenings, there will be a moderated Q&A session with the audience members and filmmakers!
