🏆🗽
First, I would like to thank @BigAppleFilmFestival for having me. The competing films were all great, and it was an honor to screen alongside them.
Next, I want to thank all of my crew and cast for helping me realize my vision. I could not have done it without every single person involved.
Last but not least, I want to thank every single person who has supported me—in every gesture big, and small.
More sappy thank yous to come! 🖤
