[Press release from Akron Film + Pixel Festival.]
On December 27th, Akron Film+Pixel will begin bringing
current critically acclaimed films to Akron on a regular basis.
“We're filling a gap for 'arthouse' cinema,” says Akron Film+Pixel
Film Curator Tim Peyton. “Cleveland has the Cinematheque and Cedar
Lee Theatre, but until now there's been no place in Akron to see new
festival films on the big screen, with an audience.”
The first film in the series is festival hit TABU. This
surrealistic love story about a dying woman’s secret past, inspired
by early Hollywood adventure films, is landing on many critics’
best-of lists for 2012. Akron Film+Pixel will bring TABU to the
Akron Art Museum on December 27th for its first public screening in
Northeast Ohio.
