Janis Joplin, CineSpace, Rap Battles & Texas Talent

Houston Cinema Arts Festival offers over 60 films and events Nov. 12-19 at several local venues, including the MFAH, Sundance Cinemas, She Works Flexible, Project Row Houses, Asia Society Texas Center, Aurora Picture Show, and more. Highlights include all the space based programing of CineSpace, which features the CineSpace contest, installations, and a spotlight on Filipino cinema. Notable celebrities include Richard Linklater, Luke and Owen Wilson, Kid ‘n’ Play and Houston native Trey Edward Shults, who will receive the Levantine Emerging Artist Award for Krisha, the hit of SXSW 2015. As always, because this is a Cinema arts festival, expect films on dance, theater, visual art, literature, and even architecture. Look for all kinds of Texas talent in this year’s programming as well. Editor-in-Chief Nancy Wozny visited with HCAF artistic director Richard Herskowitz on this year’s line-up.
