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.”

Weitz added, “You’ve seen many of the artists in this year’s festival on stages around the city and country. Now you get to see the films they’ve been creating, often wearing very different artistic hats. I’m just so impressed by these storytellers working in multiple spaces.”
