American Fiction

The 46th Denver Film Festival returns this November 3-12 with a plethora of cinematic delights, creative conversations with award-winning filmmakers in attendance, and film events for Colorado. Held across multiple venues in the Denver area, The Denver Film Festival’s opening night film is American Fiction, directed by Cord Jefferson. American Fiction is Cord Jefferson's directorial debut, which confronts our culture’s obsession with reducing people to outrageous stereotypes.

Special presentations include Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story, directed by Gelila Bekele and Armani Ortiz, which looks at the life of the actor, director, and media mogul. The Boy and the Heron, the latest film from Hayao Miyazaki, is a semi autobiographical fantasy about life, death, and creation, in tribute to friendship. The closing night film is I.S.S., directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite. I.S.S. is an eerily prophetic high-stakes thriller set entirely in the confines of the International Space Station (ISS), where astronauts face a call to duty in a fateful and terrifying way. While tensions flare aboard the ISS, a worldwide conflict occurs on Earth, and the astronauts receive orders from the ground to take control of the station by any means necessary. Gabriela Cowperthwaite will be in attendance at the screening.

This is a small sampling of the many features, shorts, and documentaries being shown alongside meet-and-greets, parties, and brunches where you can mingle with the filmmakers.
