North Central College is a host site for the 2011 Naperville Independent Film Festival (NIFF), which will showcase a series of award-winning feature and short films Sept. 19-23. The campus community is invited to attend and is offered a special admission price of $3/evening or $10 for the entire week.

The lineup for the weeknight screenings include:

The independent film “The Great Match” will be shown as part of the College’s Film Central series at 7:30 p.m. Monday, April 11, in Meiley-Swallow Hall. Unrated, but suggested as PG for some language and adult references, the 90-minute film tells the adventurous story of three heroes, none of whom have ever met, but have two things in common: they all live in the farthest-flung corners of the planet and are determined to see on TV the final in Japan of the 2002 World Cup between Germany and Brazil.

The College’s Film Central series will present an opening short film and the 2008 independent film “Sympathetic Details” by Benjamin Busch at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17, in Meiley-Swallow Hall. This screening was originally scheduled for Feb. 3. Rated R, Busch’s film is a psychological thriller that uses character and dialogue instead of action sequences to tell the story of an assassin who makes a moral decision to leave his life of professional murder.
