The Frozen River Film Festival (FRFF) now has its own club on campus.
The Frozen River Film Festival club was created to help inform students about the FRFF, which will be held Jan. 27-31, at various locations throughout Winona. This year’s theme is food. FRFF has many events during the weekend: films, music, workshops and food. The films are on a number of topics like climate, global and social issues. There is a movie for every person and every issue he or she cares about.
One of the founders of the club, Jessica LaCanne, sophomore, stated that the main goal of the club was to “get more people to participate in the festival by raising awareness.” She would like to let students and the rest of the community know what is available to do in town. Also, LaCanne said that the club is a “call to action” to get people to come see these movies. LaCanne hopes that every person “walks away from a film feeling a little unnerved and wanting to change something.” Actually being able to see if the club’s goal has been reached is hard to tell, but with the amount of free passes that LaCanne has given out during lunch time, there is a good chance that the crowds will be a little thicker this year.
