Our neighbors across the Detroit River have hosted the Windsor International Film Festival for 21 years. This year will be the first time the event will showcase outside of Canada. 

In partnership with the Downtown Detroit Partnership, film lovers will have a chance to partake in the festival. 

Campus Martius Park will act as a satellite location and offer two films for audiences to watch. 

Vincent Georgie is Executive Director and the chief programmer for WIFF, and David Cowan is Chief Public Spaces Officer for the Downtown Detroit Partnership. They joined The Metro to talk more about the film festival.
