QWFF
is thrilled to announce the 2014 QWFF
Spirit of Queens Recipients: independent film icon Hal Hartly and Executive
Director of MoMI Carl Goodman. This honor, which recognizes one extraordinary
artist and one outstanding citizen who embody the spirit of our borough, is
poised to become a hallmark of the annual film festival.
Hartley
has worked beyond the Hollywood establishment
for over 20 years. His offbeat, quirky pictures of the road less traveled are a
direct line to the heart of our borough. Hartley’s films deal with the
repercussions and pleasures of playing on the outskirts of conventionality and
his next feature is in pre production to be shot here in Queens .
Goodman
has steered MoMI back onto its rightful path as a Queens Institution and world class
screening facility and has put the museum back onto the forefront of the indie
film circuit.
In
the past, QWFF honored LONG
ISLAND CITY
