We have to give credit where it's due: you Chicagoist readers are certainly an eclectic bunch. You spoke with your index fingers and the votes are in. Here are the top ten movies in our first Chicago International Film Festival poll:

About Elly
Air Doll
Antichrist
Beyond Ipanema
Chicago Overcoat
A Frozen Flower
Made in China
Mother
Precious: Based on the novel "Push" by Sapphire
Shorts 1: Illinois(e)makers

Works from local filmmakers, cutting edge Asian cinema, a documentary, and a movie involving genital mutilation all made the cut. We'll be seeing and writing about these ten as well as few of our own choices, so keep your eyes peeled right here for coverage.

In the meantime, have you bought your tickets yet? October 8 will be here before you know it.
