NORWICH – The Martin W. Kappel Theater in the Chenango Arts Council will play venue to an international film festival on September 7, 8, and 9, event organizers announced.

The first Twin Tiers International Film Festival will take place at the Kappel Theater this September, as filmmakers from across the globe have already submitted over 100 films that will be judged and selected for screening at the event.

Festival director Christopher Pike said, “The response from the filmmakers and local community has been tremendous. I have been absolutely blown away by the amount of support we have received, both from our sponsors and the filmmakers, especially being so new and so fresh.”
