Films shot in the Hudson Valley |
All of us at the Woodstock Film Festival and the Hudson Valley Film Commission are extremely proud of the completion of the film RACING DAYLIGHT, and are honored to present this special screening. Immediately following the screening and Q&A, please join us at BYWATER BISTRO, across the street from the Rosendale Theatre. We’ll be celebra-ting with the principal cast and crew, as well as key representatives from the Woodstock Film Festival and the Hudson Valley Film Commission.
This fabulous reception, featuring delectable Hors D'oeuvres, wine & spirits and the great company of emerging and established talents, also serves as a benefit for the Hudson Valley Film Commission which works year round as a conduit for pre-production, production itself and post-production for filmmaking in the Hudson Valley/Catskill region.
The reception will be take place from 3:30-5:00 PM. Reserve now, as the screening is overbooked and we anticipate the reception will sell out shortly! |

About the Hudson Valley Film Commission:
The Hudson Valley Film Commission, working under the auspices of the Woodstock Film Festival, is a conduit for preproduction, production, and postproduction for filmmaking in the Hudson Valley/Catskill region. Support is provided throughout the year to studio features, independent features, print, new media, short films, student projects, and TV ads. The commission offers technical, location, and talent guidance, referrals, networking opportunities, email blasts, and promotion through press opportunities including the monthly e-newsletter, which is sent to 13,000 recipients.

About Bywater Bistro:
A family of chefs and food lovers, we are proud to welcome you into our casual and elegant atmosphere. We have created a space that is warm and cozy, and a menu that holds up to the high standards of our own home.
When we decided to combine our talents and open a restaurant, Main Street Rosendale was the perfect fit. The town is not only an up and coming cultural center of the Hudson Valley, but also our home town. (Elena, our manager, grew up in the house across the street.) It is minutes away from New Paltz, High Falls and Stone Ridge.
Each of us has thrown our personal touch into the bistro. Sam hunts out local and rare ingredients and mixes them into his signature dishes from the kitchen and adds them to delicious daily and seasonal specials. Elena manages the business, runs the front of house, and curates an ever growing wine list. Reuben's renovations and design skills put a new touch on the space, and Mimi's green thumb extends through the back garden and creeps up into the dining area with her orchids occupying every spare surface of the restaurant.
