Location. Location. Location.

Each year the festival looks at different venues. We have screened films in the open air, warehouse space, Tuttleman IMAX Theater, Ritz Theater, The Constitution Center, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Ethical Society, one of the the first online networks (MBN), the side of buildings, a 19th Century Church, comedy clubs, basements, and many more. We continue to look for such venues, online included (darkroom.film), around the globe.

We will be having our annual Philly Tech Week discussions in the filmmakers’ lounge. Check out the incredible High Point Coffee. 

Our discussion hashtags are #AI #Blockchain #PhillyTechWeek #piff #piffFilms #DemocratizeContent #Algorand. All #Philly handles apply. We are continuing to focus on the interface of the crowd and the #tokenization of #storytelling. We are discussing the crossroads of music, film, technology, propaganda, and culture. Our Social Media channels have been active for more than 15 years. All are welcome.

This years film and technology festival is 4 days+, the digital soapbox has returned, filmmaker Q&A is Live and more filmmaker events and discussions are happening (always live) during Philly Tech Week.

We hope you enjoy the show. Thank you for being with us for the 19 years and helping create the spirit that drives us on. Oh, and here’s the pre festival 2 for $15 General Admission ticket link ~ early support always helps. See you at the festival!       The PIFF #19 Team
