The second of our filmmaker luncheons and get togethers. The sooner you arrive, the quicker you’ll be settled and served as it’s going to be packed! You’ll have 2 hours to eat, chat, and make new friends before we head over to the first block at 12:30. But before that, we’ll all introduce ourselves and you’ll get to meet everyone at the festival and find out how you can help each other with your productions and projects in this rapid fire meet and greet session that will tire you out – but will be well worth it for all the intros you’ll make!
