Las Cruces Int'l Film Festival Returns
The Las Cruces International Film Festival (LCIFF) is turning 10! This fantastic event, running April 9-13th at New Mexico State University, is the largest student-run film festival in the country.
Founded by NMSU professor and filmmaker Ross Marks, LCIFF gives students hands-on experience in all aspects of running a film festival, from marketing to event management.
“This festival is not only a celebration of film but also an extraordinary opportunity for our students to engage in real-world experiences,” says Ross Marks, founder, and executive director of LCIFF. “We are immensely proud of the hard work and dedication our students put into making this event a success, continuing to innovate and elevate the festival year after year. Having been to over 60 film festivals as a filmmaker myself, it was my dream to create a world-class film festival in my hometown of Las Cruces, New Mexico with the students and for the students of New Mexico State University. The festival, now its tenth year, has exceeded even my greatest expectations.”
This year's festival will honor some incredible talent:
Helen Hunt: Outstanding Achievement in Entertainment Award
