Filmfest DC isn’t taking place in person this year, but would-be film critics in the DMV don’t have to wait until later this year to check out the festival’s selected films.

The international film festival is now presenting a virtual series of films, called Filmfest DC at Home, to let patrons watch movies from previous Filmfest DC festivals. The program is being held from Thursday, April 23 to Thursday, May 21.

Viewing is free of charge and includes recent audience favorites, as well as a few surprise titles, including feature-length films as well as shorts. Each film will be available for one week, starting and ending on the dates listed on the website. The opening film will be George Pelecanos’ DC Noir. For a full list of movies, and when they will be available for viewing, go to filmfestdc.org.
