Sound of Silent Film Festival 2022 Program Announced

The program is set for this year’s Sound of Silent Film Festival and it’s a doozy!  Our esteemed film review panel has chosen ten films this year out of the hundred or so that were submitted. The films include two dark comedies, a comedy, two documentaries, an homage to the golden era of film, three dramas and one we can’t quite describe but that makes us very happy.

Our composers are busily writing their scores and we look forward to presenting ten World Premieres on April 16th!
