On February 25, 2010, the festivities kicked off with the opening night gala and awards ceremony in Hollywood California at the famed Cabana Club. A little Hollywood stardust added some excitement to the event, along with numerous industry filmmakers, actors/actress, artists, press and delegates. The first week and weekend films and videos from around the world were exhibited on every topic and genre. Culver Plaza Theatre hosted the sold out screenings and seminars.

The NYIIFVF wrapped with a red carpet event premiere of the powerful film "DIRTY" an intimate look into the life and death of the ground-breaking hip hop artist Ol' Dirty Bastard, founding member of Wu-Tang Clan. A host of celebrities and VIP’s came out to support the film.

With a mix of red carpet premieres, special events, seminar panels and some of the best parties on the film festival circuit, the New York Film & Video Festival maintained its legacy for showcasing experimental, cutting-edge cinema. The spirit and camaraderie shown at NYIIFVF was a delight and made for another successful festival.

Looking forward to the next NYIIFVF (Los Angeles) Festival!
