Friday · October 8
The first edition.
A free Portland program developed by local humanist and freethought organizations.
The first PHFF invited Portland to laugh, think, be challenged and be entertained.
The 2010 edition explored existence, morality, history, science and philosophy through a deliberately broad mix of films and genres. Friday was held at Clinton Street Theatre; the Saturday and Sunday programs moved to Fifth Avenue Cinema at Portland State University.
Creation, the drama about Charles Darwin and the personal struggle surrounding his work, was documented as the Sunday finale. The original day page is retained here without filling gaps in the surviving timetable with invented screenings.
