We previewed the first week of the festival a little bit ago, but now, as it quickly approaches, we’ve got some more for you: The 2013 Cinedelphia Film Festival, which takes place from April 4th to the 27th, highlights all the best of Philly film — favorites, forgotten gems, premieres, and more. One of the events we are most excited about is the screening of LOUD! FAST! PHILLY! A History of Philly Punk at PhilaMOCA on April 23rd, which features “rare footage of local bands playing basements, churches, bars, crappy clubs, and warehouses throughout the city” from the early 1980s until now. You can get a little taste of that in the video above [at right], which shows the before and during of a 2.5 Children show at Killtime in 1996 full of familiar faces.

And what else? Oh man, so many great things, such as live scores, anniversary screenings, and a whole bunch more you can learn about after the jump.
