“The Work-in-Progress Lab at NFDC Film Bazaar provided us a platform to present our film to a larger audience. The lab presented us with an opportunity to interact with mentors. The WIP Lab has proved to be one of the most important junctures for our film. I hope the lab continues to support independent filmmakers in the future as well.”
