Lake Placid Film Festival Celebrates 25th Anniversary with Premiere of 'The Americans'
The Lake Placid Film Festival is marking its 25th anniversary with a diverse lineup of films and events, running through Sunday. A highlight of the festival is the world premiere of the documentary 'The Americans,' directed by Hyunsoo Moon.

Director Moon initially intended to focus on meatpacking facilities but shifted his focus after discovering the significant immigrant and refugee populations in rural communities surrounding these plants.
