The Independent Television Service (ITVS) is turning 20. To celebrate, we’re launching

the ITVS Indies Showcase, a free online film festival featuring a succession of 20 unforgettable documentaries July 25 to September 23. We’re fortunate to be able to honor the extraordinary contributions of independent filmmakers to public television.

Each full-length program will stream for free for three days on http://itvs.org/indies-showcase where viewers will also find a timeline of ITVS’s history, film trailers, clips, interviews, an audience award contest, and more.

The ITVS Indies Showcase line-up represents a sample of the 1,000-plus productions ITVS has supported as the country’s leading provider of independent films for public broadcasting.
