Big big congratulations to Aron Gaudet and Gita Pullapilly. The Way Way We Get By took home the special jury award for feature docs! It’s been a long road since their first screening with us last fall and we couldn’t be more happy! Something tells me this won’t be their last award on the circuit.

The audience award went to MINE, another very moving and emotional piece. The film chronicles Katrina survivors who go to extraordinary lengths to be reunited with there rescued pets..a very complex tale, and one I hope you all will have the opportunity to see soon. Dir. Geralyn Pezanoski has crafted a wonderful story. More info on this film in the coming months.

Finally, 45365 takes home the Grand Jury Award. This is the first film I saw at SXSW and it didn’t dissappoint. A very good start for three brothers who love to make films.

Much more on SX in the coming days. So far, all around a stellar experience!
