The Beloit International Film Festival kicks off its 10-day run with sold out crowds.

Executive Director Greg Gerard says two films that are showing together have already sold out and extra show times have been added.

Da Union is a short film that tells the stories of the farmers and residents who gather at a small town Wisconsin tavern; and Honor in the Heartland tells the story of the U.S.S. Beloit.

The 18th annual Beloit International Film Festival runs through March 5th.
