GINGERBREAD KIDS consumed 7 years of my life. 6 years writing and rewriting, 1 year from pre to post, and now we enter a new chapter of this journey where it all feels worth it.

Many years ago, Spielberg sat at the same awards ceremony at the same festival and walked away with the same award. The rest was history for him, as it will be for us.

We're in good company!

Congratulations to the entire cast and crew - this win is for all of us ❤️🎥

I am so incredibly proud of our amazing cast and crew for bringing this award home! At the oldest independent film festival in the world, among over 3,000 other submissions, many of which had budgets exponentially higher than ours, we came out on top with the Silver Remi!

Bella Ramsey as Ellie is just such a fumble. Maybe she's a good actor in other things but this role was not made for her. #TheLastOfUs #TheLastOfUsSeason2

We will be sure to keep you all updated as our festival run continues, and as we get closer to closing a deal for distribution!

It's only up from here!

We are honored to share with you all that as of last night, GINGERBREAD KIDS has officially secured its first festival win! And it's a big one...

[Alex Dispoto @AlexDispoto]

This festival is of great significance in the independent filmmaking space and has been a longtime dream of ours to secure a win amongst the greats and trace their path to bigger and better screens. To say that we have won the same award as Steven Spielberg is mind bending to us.

@Gardegram52 @thedailybeast It's kinda because Elon spent $44 billion on a social media platform to "bring back free speech", "legalize comedy" and re-platform Nazis, but bans people daily for goofing on him.

See, I agree with blocking toxic people, but Elon claims not to and then does the opposite. So...

@WillGremerica One officer was hit with a fire extinguisher and sprayed with a chemical that set him into 2 strokes, killing him. The other 4 officers were indirect in that they experienced beatings/trauma that their family said changed them, and they killed themselves shortly after. No lies.
