Knight Heroes

Sunday, March 8

Knight Heroes, a program created with the support of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, will return in 2020 after its successful 2019 debut. With a focus on the emerging new generation of South Florida moving image content creators, three bold and bright talents will share their insights, observations and advice about their creative paths and future outlooks in a two-hour in-person session at Olympia Theater beginning at 3:05pm on Sunday, March 8. This year’s edition features acclaimed horror filmmaker Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar), writer-director Stella Meghie, whose new film The Photograph with Issa Rae and LaKeith Stanfield opens February 14, and Miami-raised filmmaker Lulu Wang (The Farewell).

All screenings at the Olympia Theater as well as those at the Festival’s screening headquarters, Silverspot Cinemas, are part of the Festival’s CINEDWNTWN series, sponsored by Miami Downtown Development Authority
