We are delighted to reveal this year’s beautiful poster design by the one and only Jorge Colombo. Jorge has created a wonderful tribute to Main Street, Narrowsburg and our Big Eddy Film Festival community 🖤

This year’s festival theme is ‘Stories from the Other Side: Magic, Delight, Outsiders, and The Unseen’. Taking place over four days, multiple locations and featuring everything from documentary to animation and anything in-between, BEFF is a cinephile’s dream nestled in the heart of New York’s Sullivan Catskills.

All-Access passes are available for $150. As an All-Access pass holder, you’ll receive admission to all screenings and events as well as a personalized festival pass, festival goodie bag, exclusive party access, and discounts on festival merch.

On Saturday, September 5th, the Tusten Theatre will host a magical performance by LETZ, a modern roots musical ensemble featuring violinist Odetta Hartman, bassist Jamie Mohamdein and guitarist/composer Perry Foster.

Ticket link: https://dvaa.givecloud.co/product/DVAA-EVENT-108/letz-the-golem-saturday-september-5th-7pm

Tickets are $25 in advance / $30 at the door. DVAA members receive a 20% discount.
Free entry for children aged 12 and under.

LETZ are inspired by the combination of sacred Southwest melodies, Eastern European folklore, Borscht Belt ballads, and Yiddish penny songs of the Lower East Side.

For this special performance, LETZ will perform original and traditional repertoire, and spoken word, to create an evocative and experimental interpretation of the Golem – a haunting folktale exploring the conflicts within self-preservation.

This concert will feature a special pop-up exhibition of historical photos by the Borscht Belt Historical Marker Project.

Co-presented with Radio Catskill.
