CHICAGO (WLS) -- The 52nd Annual Chicago International Film Festival kicks off Thursday night and features over 125 feature films from over 50 countries.
Michael Kutza, the artistic director of the festival, stopped by ABC7 with a preview. He encourages buying tickets in advance, as many screenings are expected the sell out.
The festival runs at the AMC River East 21 Theatres through Oct. 27.
