The Saratoga Film Showcase (SFS) is a weekend-long exhibition of the newest generation of filmmakers, and a celebration of their work in our region and beyond. Hosted by Putnam Place and Saratoga Arts, SFS will offer audiences a comprehensive glimpse into cinema produced both locally and nationally, as well as an opportunity to connect with the artists.

The showcase will feature several blocks of short films, parties, and panel discussions - exploring the impact of filming on upstate communities, other artistic mediums representation in film, boundary pushing narratives, and much more. SFS is a nonprofit endeavor, collaborated on by a multitude of local organizations such as Saratoga Arts, Discover Saratoga, 518 Film Network, and more.
