    So honored and grateful to win various awards (caring for mom, no regrets) and be screened (no regrets - the sequel) and included in the Q&A at the Ponza Film Festival on the beautiful island of Ponza. If anybody has not been to Italy, being in the Ponza film lineup is the best excuse to go. The organizers were very hospitable (shout out to Rita of Villa Laetitia, who knew one of the organizers from her background in the theatre for making sure the movers and shakers at the Ponza event knew I was in the house), and the other filmmakers at the event were open and kind despite my less-than-barebones-Italian. Grazie a tutti/tutte!
