We're back! We're turning the lights on and opening up the curtains for Backstage Chicago with Lisa Fielding. 

The podcast will continue on a monthly basis where we'll give you an inside look at the arts & culture scene around the Chicagoland area.

In the latest episode, we spotlight the Chicago International Film Festival. We take you back to where it all began, we'll talk to up and coming directors, we'll tell you how films are chosen each year and how the event has become THE platform for new directors to showcase their work.
