Movie drive-ins will also be available as a way to safely allow moviegoers the opportunity to watch from their vehicles.

Standout films this year include the documentary Fandango at the Wall, which follows fifty different musicians who gather at the Tijuana-San Diego border for a concert. Other notable films include “The Outside Story,” a comedy starring Brian Tyree Henry, and “In the Cold Dark Night.”
