Topeka filmmakers who participated in a fast-paced, DIY-style film festival earlier this month will step into the spotlight this week when their films are screened for a hometown audience at a downtown eatery.

The Break Room, 911 S. Kansas Ave., will be hosting a watch party Thursday featuring two films created by local crews for the Wild West Film Fest. The party will kick off at 8 p.m., and attendees can order from the restaurant’s full dinner menu and sip on 99-cent sangria while enjoying two films that were created completely on the fly.
