Morgan said, “We’re so thrilled to gather again to present unique, challenging, vulnerable films from debut filmmakers that you won’t see anywhere else! I’m proud of our mission to continue uplifting emerging voices and presenting the showcase we’ve created for our artists. We continue to grow our community, and I can’t wait to share this year’s lineup to an audience in our new home at the Gural, which is a perfect fit.”
