Underneath Cincinnati Film Festivals are now a SOFA event. Our first official event held on March 1, 2008 at the Underground in the Know Theatre in Over-the-Rhine. Not only did we show 2 hours of award-winning films from 7 great years of locally produced independent film, but we also honored Sara Mahle for bringing 7 years of Underneath Cincinnati to the filmmaking community. Thank you Sara! We know that SOFA's involvement will help continue to bring great locally produced films to the area's film community, and offer a venue to filmmakers who want to bring their films to an appreciative audience.
