Bremner and Gerran Howell, the story is a Civil War drama about a friendship between a runaway slave and a soldier. Overall, Haley says that they have "lots of varying perspectives throughout the weekend" for the festival. "Our documentary blocks of shorts this year are super strong. We had to add another one. We just have a lot of great content submitted this year being back in person and everything." An awards ceremony will start at 9 p.m. on Saturday. As in the past, the event features lots of free and low-cost screenings too. The block party on opening night of the festival is free to attend, then on Saturday the emerging filmmaker block at 11:30 a.m. and the student filmmaker block at noon are both free. Individual screenings are $5-$8 per film. "It's a passion of ours. We don't want cost to ever inhibit people from getting to experience so much good content,"Haley says.
