Annual Indie Film Festival Switches to Drive-in Screenings for First Time

The annual Greenpoint Film Festival will be taking place next month and the organizers will be holding it outdoors for the first time at venues in Brooklyn and Long Island City.

The festival, which is in its ninth year, is adopting a drive-in concept. The first screenings will be in Long Island City — on Aug. 1 and 2 — at The Foundry, located at 42-38 9th St. Organizers will kick the festival off by playing “Chuck Berry,” a documentary about the rock ‘n roll legend.
