Tucson, Arizona  – I Dream in Widescreen BFA Thesis Films from The University of Arizona School of Theatre, Film & Television, will return this year to the Fox Tucson Theatre on Saturday, May 7, at 7:00pm (doors open at 6pm), sponsored by Rica and Harvey Spivack. General admission tickets are on sale now for $5 at the UA Fine Arts Box Office by calling (520) 621-1162, or you can purchase them in advance online.

 

This standing-room-only, annual event is the first chance to see original films from the UA Film & Television program before they travel the world to major international film festivals, such as Sundance and the  Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), which internationally premiered the 2014 UA thesis film, Bloodlines, by Christopher Cegielski in February, 2015.

"We are delighted by the international recognition the films are receiving and for the growing industry support of this screening,” said Professor Lisanne Skyler, Division Head. The Film & Television program is welcoming some new sponsors and some returning sponsors from the film industry, including Fancy Film Post Entertainment Partners, the creator of Movie Magic Budgeting and Scheduling;  Film TucsonPollution Studios Other World Computing; as well as the  UA Hanson Film Institute. Some of the sponsors are offering generous and meaningful awards to celebrate the film students' accomplishments and help them continue to make films.

“ It’s not lost on me that it’s a privilege to have a student film shown at a venue like the Fox Theatre, on a big screen with an audience of hundreds,” said senior filmmaker, Alex Guyton.



“I think it’s a responsibility to put out something that’s worthwhile and worthy of all the pomp and circumstance. I hope they (the audience members)

have fun, enjoy it and laugh.”
