True/False Film Fest Turns 10

Indonesian gang culture. The hunt for Osama bin Laden. Sunbathers, barbecuers and swimmers at a national park in Israel. Life in a Karachi orphanage. These are just some of the subjects explored in the nearly 40 films scheduled for this year's True/False Film Fest.

It’s the 10th anniversary for the True/False Film Fest based in Columbia, Missouri that blurs the line between fact and fiction, propaganda and journalism. On Wednesday's Central Standard, we’ll talk about the history - and future - of the event with co-founder and director David Wilson.

True/False Film Fest 2013, February 28 - March 3, in Columbia, Missouri. For tips on attending True/False, check here. Or, here for a complete lists of films to be screened at this year's fest.

Kansas City is known for its style of jazz, influenced by the blues, as the home of Walt Disney’s first animation studio and the headquarters of Hallmark Cards. As one of KCUR’s arts reporters, I want people here to know a wide range of arts and culture stories from across the metropolitan area. I take listeners behind the scenes and introduce them to emerging artists and organizations, as well as keep up with established institutions. Send me an email at lauras@kcur.org or follow me on Twitter @lauraspencer.
