Filmmaking isn’t if you can just strap on a camera onto an actor, and Steadicam, and point it at their face, and follow them through the movie, that is not what moviemaking is, that is not what it’s about. It’s not just about getting a performance. It’s also about the psychology of the cinematic moment, and the psychology of the presentation of that, of that window

    This is my first feature film as a director. I am very grateful that my film was recognized by the festival. I was very excited and honored when I received the notification of the screening results.

    The festival staff was quick to respond and I appreciate the seriousness with which they took the film and the art.

    We hope that we will have the opportunity to hear feedback directly from the festival staff and audience at the real screenings, and we hope that we will be given that opportunity. We also hope that our films will be seen by new people through this festival.
