The Women Texas Film Festival, now in its fourth year, will do its thing in Dallas this year August 15 through 18. But there’s a problem: a certain hotel has backed out of its sponsorship (not fair!), leaving a lot of out-of-town filmmakers without a place to lay their heads. So the organizers are scrambling to find rooms, whether they be at other hotels or even private residences. Our executive editor, Kathy Wise, has a back house and has offered it up. If you’ve got a similar setup that could accommodate a guest, and if you live in southern Dallas, Oak Cliff, the Cedars, or downtown, fill out this form. If you run a hotel that has some empty rooms and if you’d like a sponsorship plug at the event, contact Lisa Normand at [email protected].
As for the fest itself, the screenings will be in Oak Cliff and throughout southern Dallas. More info here. And here’s a sizzle reel from last year. Get to it, folks.
