WBUR is proud to be a presenting sponsor of the 2024 Independent Film Festival Boston (IFFBoston), returning to the Somerville, Brattle and Coolidge Corner Theatres from May 1-8. Now in its 21st anniversary the Festival is committed to two fundamental goals: to find the best local, national and global films to share with our community; and to showcase our city to visiting artists, introducing them to savvy audiences and ideal locations for future films.

Tickets are on sale now and the full Festival lineup can be found here.  Make to sure to look out for the CitySpace team at opening and closing nights - we'll be giving away goodies!
