Company Profile
CIMMfest, The Chicago International Movies & Music Festival, returns April 18-21 for four days of premiere screenings, events, concerts, exhibits and presentations. Now in its fifth year, CIMMfest celebrates the intersection of music and movies in all forms, from around the world. From traditional documentary, concert, and feature films - to fringe and experimental DJ/VJ shows and multi media installations, to daring and exclusive live musical accompaniment to film, there is simply nothing like CIMMfest. Welcome to No. 5.
Along with over 70 international films and videos, 2013 will see the expansion of the festival’s live music section, as well as launching CIMMcon, a professional and entrepreneurial conference and presentation arm in collaboration with Columbia College, Liverpool Sound City, and The Engineering and Recording Society of Chicago (EARS).
Festival central is along Milwaukee Avenue and the Blue “L” line train from Wicker Park to Logan Square with 18 partner venues housing programming day and night. Film screenings, presentations, and panels during the day, slamming concerts and showcase events when the sun goes down.
Founded in 2008 by Josh Chicoine and Ilko Davidov, a musician and filmmaker respectively, the Fest highlights that shared space of sound and visual that is everywhere today. For the 1st four years, film programming drove the live music events, with a particular focus on live visual accompaniment, whether traditional movies or innovative visual art pieces. CIMMfest is now expanding the live music element along Milwaukee Avenue in order to push toward our version of a SXSW. We offer that space for artists and filmmakers to come together and share their passions, collaborate on future works, and connect with a vast community of fans and producers - with Chicago as the backdrop.
