The 18th Annual Frozen River Film Festival in Winona kicks off this Sunday, February 5th and runs through Sunday, February 12th.
FRFF Managing Director, Eileen Moeller, says like last year it will be an in person event but they are also making the festival available online so people can watch from home.
Moeller says over they received over 200 documentary film submissions from all over the world this year.
Moeller says the festival is the only all documentary film festival in Minnesota and it’s grown from a 2 day event to a full week, featuring films with a wide variety of topics and lengths.
Some names you might not expect to hear, are associated with the festival. Elton John is co- Executive Producer for the documentary “Hating Peter Tatchell” and the film The Queen of Basketball features current and former NBA stars, Shaquille O’Neal and Step Curry as Executive Producers.
