Fort Wayne’s only independent film festival, Hobnobben, is back and bigger than ever. 

Returning to Cinema Center, you can experience a record-breaking 128 films during the four-day event. Or, if you’d rather, you can stay home and view the films through an online portal. Regardless, the in-person event will be held Thursday-Saturday, Oct. 13-16.

Established in 2015, Hobnobben serves as Cinema Center’s primary fundraising event. But it’s so much more than that, according to the festival’s three co-chairs: Alix Watson, Amanda Hille, and Christi Hille.
