YOUR LAST BEST: A MEMPHIS ROX STORY — Finalist

Dir: Glen Janssens | United States | Documentary | 2024 | 16 min

Hope comes to a South Memphis neighborhood that has struggled with basic resources. It takes the unlikely form of a climbing gym, where Jarmond Johnson and others experience different outcomes on the wall.

 

SPECTRUM OF CONSUMPTION: A CONSERVATION STORY

Dir: Colleen Kelley | United States | Student Film | 2024 | 20 min

This observational film follows a group of women hunters in Montana, exploring their relationship to public land, conservation, and alternatives to the industrial food complex. Production for this film occurred on the traditional and ancestral lands of the Niitisapi People (the Black Feet Tribe) and the Séliš and Ql?ispé and Ktunaxa People (the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes), respectively.
