My Very Own Chicago International Film Festival 2016 Watchlist

This year, I had the means to go all out, take a day off work, and buy a ton of tickets. At this writing I have one more left to see. I'm so glad that I got a chance to do this, I would live at film festivals if I could [get hired as a professional film critic]. This list includes two shorts programs and 11 feature length films.

Films not yet on Letterboxd:
Among the Black Waves (Anna Budanova)
Balloonfest (Nathan Truesdell)
Fox and the Whale (Robin Joseph)
Home of the Brave (Gustav Hugosson, Andreas Nilsson)
Moriom (Francesca Scalisi, Mark Olexa)
Pine Tree Villa (Jan Koester)
