Obviously the health of our society is more important than any film, but I was thinking about my early 20s and my first film premiering at #sxsw . There was such an importance of this event to me as an artist. Wishing all the first time filmmakers lots of luck.

A big thank you to Lincoln Plaza Theaters for being huge supporters of independent film in NYC! A lot of Menashe's success was because of them. I don't want to be nostalgic, but between this and our subway system, NYC needs to do better.
