the surprise announcement call that i’d be receiving this grant had a good amount of tears. most of the jury are friends of Lynn Shelton, and they all have kind faces. so i now know she must have been kind. a very sincere THANK YOU @nwfilmforum , The Duplass brothers, and the jury. you all have transformed your loss into something moving and beautiful. i’m honored. and thank you @indiewire and Kate Erbland (Happy Bday again!) for this writeup. ✨
