TEC Alum and Six-Week Class Film to Premiere at SXSW 2020

Good Ol Girl, March/April 2018 class film will have it’s premiere at SXSW 2020.

Directed by Sarah Brennan Kolb and Edited by TEC Alum Stella Quinn

Good Ol Girl follows three young Texas cowgirls tasked with carrying on their families' legacies amidst a volatile landscape and industry. The film explores the modern West: a place where the male cowboy mythology must answer to a new, honest, and some would say subversive, female story. The jarring transition between generations illuminates the weight of heritage and tradition. As the old guard wanes, these three women stand amidst the vast ranchlands of Texas. Who has the authority to claim our traditions when only those who have been overlooked are left to carry them on?

City of Joel - Directed by Jesse Sweet

“Located in the town of Monroe, NY, just over 50 miles north of New York City, the village of Kiryas Joel claims one of the fastest-growing Hasidic communities in the US. When the secular residents of the larger township—already wary of their insular neighbors—learn of Kiryas Joel’s desire to annex adjacent land to address its population growth, this sets off a turf war with political, economic and religious implications, echoing the divide within our nation as a whole.”

“The biggest tech revolution of the 21st Century isn't digital, it's biological. A breakthrough called CRISPR has given us unprecedented control over the basic building blocks of life. It opens the door to curing diseases, reshaping the biosphere, and designing our own children. Human Nature is a provocative exploration of CRISPR's far-reaching implications, through the eyes of the scientists who discovered it, the families its affecting, and the bio-engineers who are testing its limits. How will this new power change our relationship with nature? What will it mean for human evolution? To begin to answer these questions we must look back billions of years and peer into an uncertain future.”
