The Woodstock Film Festival announced August 14, its 21st annual event will be a hybrid festival held at area drive-ins and online from September 3 through October 4. The festival "shifted its spring calendar online, producing a robust program of live conversations with industry luminaries, notable directors and actors, as well as a curated selection of streamable films with introductions from their filmmakers. Both programs have been offered to the public free of charge," according to a press release. The festival will screen a full lineup of films at the Greenville Drive-In Outdoor Cinema in Greenville and other area drive-ins including the Overlook Drive-In in Poughkeepsie, with some events planned in Woodstock, as well. There will be a full slate of films offered online, accompanied by Q&A sessions with the filmmakers. A special online conversation series will feature speakers from all corners of the film industry. The festival's Maverick Awards ceremony will be held in a modified way online, as well.
