Posted

Dozens flocked to the Green Bay Film Festival this weekend.  

Sunday was the last day for the event.

The purpose of the festival is to provide a rich cultural and educational experience to the community and it also brings in tourists interested in seeing the films.

"Filmmakers from Wisconsin, they're across the United States and they're all from all over the world.  We've had I think 35-40 filmmakers here this weekend," said Green Bay Film Festival director, Cyndee Sweetland.

Many of the movies shown at the event are produced locally which helps to showcase Green Bay as a hub for filmmaking and film appreciation.
