Step into the heart of North Riverside, Illinois, and witness the story of a group of firefighters who refused to let budget cuts compromise safety. We're elated to roll out the red carpet for the world premiere of the documentary Fire Department, Inc. at the Blue Whiskey Independent Film Festival!
​
We hope you’ll join us in person for a screening followed by a Q&A with the director, producer and interview subjects.

Premiere Details:

• When: Saturday, May 4th, 2024, at 7pm
• Where: Chicago Filmmakers (1326 W Hollywood Ave Chicago, IL 60660)
• Cost: Tickets are $15 and can be purchased here

​Adding an extra layer of excitement to the evening, the premiere will take place at the historic Chicago Filmmakers Theater in Edgewater.  We are honored to screen in this wonderful venue that was once a Chicago firehouse!
​
Built in the 1920s, it was home to The Chicago Fire Department's Truck Company No. 47 and later Engine Company 59. We couldn’t ask for a better venue for a night that pays homage to the brave souls who risk their lives to protect Chicagoland.

With limited seating at the historic Chicago Filmmakers Theater and high anticipation for Fire Department, Inc., early ticket purchase is highly recommended.
​
Let's come together to celebrate the power of documentary filmmaking and the indomitable spirit of those who serve and protect us. See you at the movies!
