RiverRun 2013

The RiverRun International Film Festival is a regional event based in Winston-Salem, NC and is one of the premier film festivals in the southeastern United States. The 15th annual RiverRun will be held April 12–21, 2013. 

Founded in 1998, RiverRun was inspired by the French Broad River near Brevard, North Carolina, where the festival was originally held. Each year since its inception, RiverRun has grown substantially. The 2013 Festival will feature 143 films, including 66 features and 77 shorts from 35 different countries.
