Ashland, Oregon is a small-town film mecca that draws Hollywood expats with its mix of a thriving film scene, proximity to big cities, and sprawling wide open spaces.This year, Southern Oregon's Ashland Independent Film Festival has persevered and innovated through not only a pandemic, but fires that have destroyed homes and blackened acreage surrounding a beautiful town in the foothills of two mountain ranges.AIFF artistic director Richard Herskowitz told us about what's its like to live in Ashland now, and how the festival has made positive changes that will outlast this tough year.You can also watch videos from the festival on its YouTube channel, and learn more on the Ashland Independent Film Festival website.
