Last year I was covering the Circle Cinema Film Festival with BehindtheScenesOK interviewing filmmakers cast and crew and watching incredible Oklahoma stories unfold on the big screen.

I remember sitting there thinking, “Next year, I want to be up there.”

Well... this is next year.

This Sunday I’ll be on that screen (even if it’s only for 11 minutes) and that’s a reminder that big dreams are built one small “yes” at a time.

Come celebrate Oklahoma filmmaking with us and support the artists telling meaningful stories.

🎬 **THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOSS** (shot this spring with the amazing PJ Sosko, Bill Doty, Tonya Power, at St******nt Studios with Yelena, and Soren)
🗓 Sunday, July 19 • 5:00 PM

The Circle Cinema Film Festival is packed with Oklahoma-made films, filmmaker panels, and opportunities to connect with our creative community. Whether you come for one screening or stay all weekend, come support local storytellers.

See you at the movies this weekend. 🎥❤️

Through personal stories, first-hand accounts, and following a “day-in-the-life” of these heroes, the film captures the struggles and triumphs of the men who broke barriers in a segregated fire department. This film preserves their legacy and honors the generations who paved the way for today’s firefighters.

Congratulations new American citizens! 🇺🇸 This is our second year hosting a naturalization ceremony and we could not be prouder of these folks.

Each year we screen the film “The Test” which follows the story of one man and his journey to citizenship. Afterwards we love to snack and chat with the families. We want to thank our sponsor Xcaliber International.

Craft night at the movies! Reel Crafts is back with Community Craft, and this time we're screening Fried Green Tomatoes starring Kathy Bates and Jessica Tandy. Keep an eye out for Tulsa's own Gailard Sartain as Bates' husband!

We'll keep the lights half-raised so you can knit, color, or bead through the film. Bring your own project or grab a kit from Community Craft in the lobby. Mary Make & Do kicks things off at 7pm. https://loom.ly/cDFsUXA

After the su***de of their estranged father, two siblings return to the family ranch they abandoned a decade earlier.

A haunting rural drama about grief, legacy, and the uneasy bond between man and nature.
