Greenpoint Film Festival Marks 15th Year with 'Unbound' Theme

The Greenpoint Film Festival is set to return for its 15th anniversary, bringing a curated selection of independent cinema to the neighborhood. Organizers have announced that the event will run from August 5 through August 9, 2026.

This year’s iteration of the festival will be hosted at Broadway Stages, located at 259 Green St. To accommodate the screenings, event planners are reportedly transforming a functional soundstage at the facility into a temporary movie theater.

The 2026 festival is centered around the theme "Unbound." According to event organizers, this focus is intended to highlight films that challenge traditional storytelling conventions and explore unique narratives. The program aims to balance international entries with works produced by local filmmakers, continuing the festival's long-standing tradition of supporting regional talent.

While the festival has confirmed its dates and venue, specific details regarding the full screening schedule and ticket availability have not yet been released. Attendees are encouraged to monitor official channels for updates as the start date approaches.
