Enter the Void

Monday, March 14
12:30PM - 1:30PM

Austin Convention Center
Room 17B
531 E 4th St

Friends, filmmakers, fellow badge-holders, lend us your ears.

We come not to bury independent film, but to praise it.

Together we will dig graves for a few pieces of conventional wisdom, and sift through the dirt in search of a path forward.

Join producers Dan Janvey ("Beasts of the Southern Wild"), David Kaplan ("It Follows") and Alicia Van Couvering ("Tiny Furniture") for a spirited exchange of ideas on the state of the independent film industry.

We promise not to debate in iambic pentameter.

We also promise to show up sober.

Beyond that, no promises
