@leomcguigan : ‘What an incredible screening that was! While “The Invention” did not win the Grand Prize for Best Narrative Short Film (that honor went to the moving and beautiful “Abu Adnan”), my experience at this year’s Indy Shorts Film Festival was quite simply the best of my filmmaking life. So many exceptional stories, and the warmest, kindest creative environment anyone could hope for. “The Invention” is a film very close to my heart, and getting to screen as a Top 5 finalist at such an incredible event - from 2300 submissions - was truly overwhelming. I am so grateful for all of the support and words of encouragement I received over the past week in the run-up to the festival. It truly means the world! I got to make a film about my hero, and hearing the reaction of the Indiana audience this weekend was a dream come true. A special shout-out to my travel companion Laura McGuigan who’s patience with her younger brother knows no limitations! 😂 And to our cast and crew, I am forever in your debt. Thank you once again.’ #director #nitalent #shortfilm #scriptchat #filmmaker #film #filmfestival
