2009 Miami International Film Festival employee special discount packages
Miami Dade College is proud to host the 26th edition of the Miami International Film Festival (MIFF) from March 6 through March 15, 2009. Blending traditional programming with contemporary, multimedia selections from the world’s vast art panorama, this year's Festival will reach new cinematic heights, celebrating art beyond the big screen, and saluting Miami’s growing arts scene.
The 2009 Festival features more than 135 films from more than 40 countries, including France, Germany, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Italy, Japan, Argentina, Mexico, Sri Lanka, South Korea, Ethiopia, China, Slovenia and Afghanistan. Please review our Film Guide for a complete listing of this year's film presentations.
We are happy to offer MDC’s full-time employees the opportunity to purchase any of four unique film/event packages, at a reduced rate. At last year’s Festival, more than 70 percent of the films sold out. Therefore, please review your choices and act early!
Fill out the Employee Packages Form, which includes information on packages 1 through 4. Indicate your choice of package(s) and fax it to the attention of Geraldine Guerra at (305) 237-3332. Pricing is per person.

All packages will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure you are able to see the films and attend the events of your choice, please get your reservations in today.
See you at the movies!
