FLEFF STATEMENT ON THE MURDER OF MR. GEORGE FLOYD 

We at the Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival condemn the murder of George Floyd and others who have been killed by police in the United States with no justifiable cause.  We recognize the deeply imbedded institutional racism that encourages such actions and allows them to continue.  We realize that the US has a long and sordid history of violence against Black Americans.  We stand in solidarity with those around the world who are protesting police misconduct and racial injustice  in Minneapolis and other American cities.  We believe that such actions offer a path to creating a more just and equitable society and a better world.

24th Annual Edition of FLEFF March 22-April 11, 2021

FLEFF 2021 will be 100% virtual, with online events and films hosted by Ithaca College and our partner Cinemapolis.

FLEFF 2020 Exhibitions

Although the embodied, on-the-ground festival was canceled,  FLEFF has mounted two online exhibitions for its 23rd Annual Edition.

The first is RADICAL INFILTRATIONS, an exhibition of new media art co-curated by Dale Hudson (NYU Abu Dhabi) and Claudia Costa Pederson (Wichita State University).

The second is INFILTRATIONS: A DIFFERENT MEDIA ENVIRONMENT, an exhibition of short analog works, cosponsored by FLEFF and the Park Center for Independent Media

Both are offered to students and faculty around the globe to support their courses, and  to  bring our extended FLEFF community together, if only virtually.
