ITVS Indies Showcase Celebrates 20 Years of Independents

July 23, 2011 by 826chi in Uncategorized

Our parent organization, the Independent Television Service (ITVS), is celebrating its 20th anniversary! To honor the amazing filmmakers who have so inspired us in the past two decades, and to offer our amazing viewers — without whom we wouldn’t have a reason to exist — a gift of gratitude, we’re launching a summer film festival!

The ITVS Indies Showcase is a free online film festival featuring a succession of 20 unforgettable documentaries July 25 to September 23.


We’re fortunate to be able to honor the extraordinary contributions of independent filmmakers to public television. Each full-length program will stream free for three days as part of ITVS Indies Showcase, where viewers will also find a timeline of ITVS’s history, film trailers, clips, interviews, an audience award contest, and more.
The ITVS Indies Showcase line-up represents a sample of the 1,000-plus productions ITVS has supported as the country’s leading provider of independent films for public broadcasting.
Tune in for the first film, the Oscar-nominated Daughter from Danang (which originally aired on American Experience in 2003) on Monday, July 25!
