The VORTEX presents Camera Obscura, three evenings of screenings of films by Central Texas filmmakers and media creators.
Camera Obscura is not just a showcase; it’s a platform for local artists to share their powerful narratives. From thought-provoking shorts to captivating features and compelling web series, each work of art has the potential to ignite conversations and to inspire change within our community.
This event is free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served. Please enjoy food from Patrizi’s Italian Food Truck and drinks from The Butterfly Bar.
Following the screenings, join us for an engaging talkback session with the creators themselves. Dive deeper into the themes explored in their films, gain insight into their creative process, and be part of the dialogue that continues long after the credits roll.
