Hackforge is excited for WIFF! to return this fall! This annual celebration of films that explore languages, cultures, themes, and stories that we might not find in the mainstream.
We here at Hackforge are suckers for data. Show times and film synopses are interesting, but we wanted to know how many countries contributed films, how many different languages films were presented in, and the total runtime of the festival!
