"One of the greatest parts
about this particular festival is I’ve met a lot of wonderful young,
innovative, vibrant and original filmmakers. Filmmakers in their late 20s
or early 30s who are working on their first or second films and are making
very versatile films. Just meeting them and sharing ideas and exchanging
emails for me is really priceless." -Alex
Karpovsky, writer/director/actor/producer of "The Hole Story" at Night of
1000 Stars.
