Our
@agonistfilm world premier at
@psfilmfest 🥺
I just want to say thank you to
@bctheknight for giving my agonist family and (literal) family & friends the warmest welcome (and for having good taste)
I will remember this experience for the rest of my life. I only get to have my first premiere of my ~directorial debut~ once & it was so special having my mom, Agonist crew, cast, friends & family fly from across the world, country, drive 8 hours etc just to celebrate our little short we made.
I was so lost in what I wanted to do with my life before I directed this little film & I’m so grateful I found a way to express my grief, trauma & experiences through filmmaking. When I stepped onto set as a director I felt like I’ve finally found what I’m meant to be doing.
I met
@instantangie on a plane flying to NYC, she couldn’t reach her bags on the upper-bin so
@devindruid grabbed them for her— since then we’ve been inseparable as she’s produced Agonist, calling in favors from EVERYONE she brought on, out of pure passion. I know for a fact my experience & this film would not be what it is without Angie & all of her incredible people she brought to create magic.
I can’t thank
@scottsalter101 enough for making this happen. Thank you for taking a chance on me, supporting me & trusting me—especially as a *first time female director*
