Radio Gallery: Free Range Film Festival

This weekend is the Free Range Film Festival held each year at the Food Farm's Wrenshall Barn.  Films will be shown Friday night starting at 7 p.m. and Saturday beginning at 2 p.m.

As always the festival is comprised of independent shorts and some not so short films by regional and national filmmakers. This year's schedule has 25 films ranging from 2  to 95 minutes.

One Minnesota documentary filmmaker Justin Christopher Ayd is showing his 20-minute production " Grandpa Ben" on Friday Night, a glimpse into the world of amateur artist Benjamin Vickery Jr., his grandfather-in-law who is still making art in his 90s. 

We share our conversation with Director Justin Christopher Ayd for a glimpse inside the art of filmmaking, when your subject is family.

Check out the Free Range Film Festival schedule linked here and see a night of films, in a barn!
