It is an incredible honor to post that
@ludifilm has been selected to open the
@miamifilm this year, with its world premiere to be held on March 5th 2021.
Today I’m at that stage of exhaustion that borders on a fun delirium—I’ve seen the film about two dozen times in the past four days alone, the music/score on a permanent loop in my brain, catching last minute items and amending closed caption files—which is not the quickest nor easiest thing to do with a film that has three spoken languages.
But I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’m happy to be here; I’m happy to be sharing this with you; I’m thankful for you all. And as a producer, I gotta wear my producing hat and thank the following:
@oolitearts for bestowing the cinematic residency grant to #EdsonJean to make all of this possible (and in particular Ooliters
@widdles and
@marikalynch for their assistance as of late), The Southern Producers Lab at the
@neworleansfilmsociety ,
@thegotham Narrative Lab,
@onecountyfilm , U.S. in Progress Wrocław
@americanfilmfestival ,
@fixafilm ,
@soundflower_studio ,
@lunionsuite ,
@bantufy , #EdsonJean and all cast and crew.

Thank you for helping to bring a story about an immigrant essential worker to life.
