Other titles in the line-up include Sundance selections Homeroom and Luzzu, as well as SXSW titles like Mark Duplass and Natalie Morales’ Language Lessons. The festival will be a hybrid of online and open-air screenings, as well as drive-ins and conversations.
Also at the fest, Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino will be the recipients of the excellence in television writing award. Kelsey Grammer will receive the Compass Rose award for career achievement.
The festival’s conversation series will include appearances from Ethan Hawke, Alice Hoffman and Duplass, among others.
Expanding from six to twelves day, the festival will run from June 17 to 28.
