We are thrilled to share that we were awarded Best Canadian Documentary at the Projecting Change Film Festival! That's me accepting the award with co-founders Lindsay and Brady and the festival Executive Director Colette (thanks for the photo which I snagged from the Projecting Change facebook page -see more photos here).
We saw so many great films and got to meet some other filmmakers that I hope we'll keep in touch with. Grant rocked his white pants at the closing night party - his band performed for the evening, and we got some really great feedback both on our film and on the event as a whole. It's such a great feeling to be part of a festival in your own home town, especially one that is so well coordinated and engages the public in such an enthousiastic way.
