I'M NOT GONNA MOVE TO L.A. : Film Gate Edition

I'M NOT GONNA MOVE TO L.A. : Film Gate Edition

This series has been a consistent sellout for the last seven months. You watch local films, get a chance to ask the directors questions and cast your vote in an unorthodox way. All curated by a local comedian. That would be David Del Rosario. He is funny, he also impersonated a giant robot. Among others.

This is the most fun you will ever have at a screening, guaranteed! Oh…and there is film trivia, random prizes and fuzzy balls.

Local shorts duke it out for the audience's adoration and the grand prize!
