The SNOB (Somewhat North of Boston) Film Festival gets a change of venue this year, bringing five days filled with 65 international, national, regional and local films to downtown Concord, rather than the previous venue at the New Hampshire Technical Institute due to construction at the school.

Screenings take place Tuesday, Nov. 7 through Saturday, Nov. 11. The venues are within walking distance of each other, and some downtown restaurateurs are offering discounted meals to anyone showing a SNOB ticket stub. One of this year’s headliners is a screening on Friday night of “Who Killed the Electric Car,” the Martin Sheen-narrated documentary that uncovers the story behind General Motors’ decision to literally destroy its promising line of electric powered cars in the mid-1990s.Many films will engage younger audiences, such as “Binta and the Great Idea,” a film from Senegal about a 7-year-old girl, her fisherman father and a friend who isn’t allowed to go to school, and “Laundry Day,” a Chaplin-esque silent fairytale romance, written and directed by local filmmaker Travis Laughlin and set in the alleyways of Concord. 

There’s also a new activity for aspiring filmmakers, the 5x5 Filmmaker Challenge. Anyone is welcome to make a film on the theme of “five” in five days that is no longer than five minutes in length. The Barley House will host the official challenge kick-off at 5 p.m. on Oct. 31, which potential filmmakers are encouraged, though not required, to attend.
