HDFEST returns to Portland May 15th-17th for three nights of screenings of independent films at the Living Room Theaters from 5pm-11pm. The film festival will showcase over 40 projects in HD resolution including feature films, documentaries, shorts, music videos and animations. Screening sequences include “HD International Short Films,” “Romantic Relationships and Intrigue” and “High- Definition Gay Films." Indie filmmakers will be in town to discuss their work in Q&A sessions after the screenings.

Industry executives and working professionals alike have confirmed HDFEST played, and continues to play, a vital role in the acceleration of this transition.

Quickly the Deffies are emerging as one of the most coveted awards for the visionaries who have adopted this powerful technology.
