Our Vision

Percolator Films is a new non-profit media arts organization founded by independent filmmakers Ines Sommer and Kathy Berger. Percolator Films grew out of our work presenting the free Reeltime film and discussion series at the Evanston Public Library and Block Cinema for the past decade. The Talking Pictures Festival is the first major undertaking for Percolator Films.

We are interested in engaging audiences with independent films that are challenging, intriguing, entertaining and prompt the viewer to think outside the box.

Percolator Films brings independent filmmakers and audience members together and collaborates with community organizations to create a space for public dialogue about the films we show.
