Following the screening there will be a Q&A with the director, writer and cast, and a college-themed after-party will follow.
Closing Night will feature the world premiere of 24 Hour Love, which showcases seven stories of everyday people experiencing love, laughter, life and relationships of the heart ... the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
