Only One Chance to Catch These HIFF 2023 Screenings
By Staff
It’s time, once again, for the annually anticipated Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF), which returns for its 31st year October 5–12.
While many of the films are scheduled to be screened twice throughout the weeklong event, such as 2023 opener Nyad on Thursday, all the short film programs, behind-the-scenes discussions and several screenings are scheduled to take place only once.
Movie buffs looking to get the most out of this year’s festival should consider prioritizing the following one-chance HIFF offerings when purchasing tickets.
