USM's Film Club is bringing back our student film festival, with a new flair!
No matter if it is your first time holding a camera or you have already been screened in multiple festivals, the Husky Film Fest is here to share stories from students in all stages of skill development and from all walks of life. Come to our one-night screening in Tabolt Lecture Hall located in Luther Bonney on our Portland campus and join us in our celebration of student film makers and for a chance to win some awesome prizes! The screening will be held at 7:30pm on May 4th.
