Thank you so much to everyone who came out on Sunday for our inaugural festival! It was wonderful to have so many of the filmmakers there to take part in a discussion afterwards and to represent their work, and it was great to see the interest the community had in opening this dialogue about consent in film.

The filmmakers impressed us with their creative approaches to the topic, making the program rich with a variety of genres, stories, and styles. We look forward to curating another program of original shorts for next year!

If you're interested in seeing the festival grow, please leave a positive review and share the page. We plan to come back bigger and better for next year, and this would help us do that by reaching more people. Once again, thank you!
