“I like the word ‘underground’ as in the Chicago Underground Film Festival. The word ‘independent’ carries a stigma of whininess. ‘Underground’ means a good time.” – John Waters

For the first time, IFP/Chicago is presenting the “Defiantly independent and deliberately scandalous” (Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune) Chicago Underground Film Festival. The festival’s mission is to support and promote innovative films and videos that dissent in form, technique, or content from the ‘indie’ mainstream and to create a community for makers and audiences of adventurous work that entertains, pushes boundaries, challenges viewers and transcends expectations

“What you get for your money is not just admission to the films but admission to a subculture” –Roger Ebert
