The 27th annual Dance With Films: LA has come to a close with the Filmmaker Awards being handed out. You can see those below. For those curious, and as per the press release, here is a bit about the fest: “Now in its 27th year, Dances With Films champions the unflinching spirit at the very core of the independent film scene. With most film festivals relying heavily on celebrity, DWF have relied on innovation, talent, creativity, and sweat equity that revolutionized the entertainment industry. And that reliance continues to prove successful with alumni moving on to write, direct, and produce celebrity-studded vehicles, star in blockbuster movies, and television series, produce multi-million-dollar film and create hot TV shows.”
