While we have been stuck indoors, the world has changed around us. As we look ahead to the next evolution of the festival landscape, how will the relationship between festivals and filmmakers evolve? On the frontlines of a sometimes bitter cultural warfare, how do festivals use their position to advocate for their artists and elevate their struggles and stories? Will we ever meet in person again? Featuring DOC NYC and Athena Film Festival programmer Opal H. Bennett, Inside Out Executive Director Andria Wilson, NewFest Director of Programming Nick McCarthy, and aGLIFF's own Artistic Director Jim Brunzell III.
