SitemapThe Cleveland International Film Festival is known to show a wide variety of features and short films.
However, in recent years, a special part of the festival has been its Local Heroes Competition, which Festival Associate Director Patrick Shepherd described as being an annual celebration of films made about Ohio, in Ohio or by Ohioans.
While the novel coronavirus is still keeping many folks out of theaters, this year’s CIFF45 Streams — taking place April 7 through 20 — is offering audiences the ability to stream its Local Heroes Competition films from the safety of their own homes.
Based on an audience vote, the winner of this competition, who will receive a $5,000 cash prize, will be announced at the CIFF Closing Awards Ceremony.
