ROLLS OUT FOR LORAS STUDENT FILM MAKERS
Marion, IA Do you have plans for April 11th and 12th? Well, you do now! The Annual
Cedar Rapids Independent Film Festival is Friday and Saturday April 11th-12th. Loras College is
pleased to announce that nine Media Studies students have the opportunity to present their films.
It is an honor to have our film chosen to be part of this film festival. I am also excited to be
selected to show our film at the Cedar Rapids Independent Film festival at Collins Road Theatres
in Marion because this is my hometown, says Jake Roth, Media Studies student/Filmmaker.
This is the first time the festival has chosen six films by Loras students, stated Professor Craig
Schaefer. Ticket pricing information as well as a viewing schedule can be found at
