Festival of Cinema NYC Founder and Executive Director Jayson Simba: “As we near the end of our first decade of bringing films to Forest Hills/Queens, we have established a well-earned reputation for celebrating truly independent films and filmmakers from Europe, the West Coast, and New York City as well.” The Festival of Cinema NYC is an independent film festival designed to support and expose emerging filmmakers by screening a diverse range of films, including features, shorts, animation, and music videos.
