Congratulations to all our students who submitted films for the 20th annual Gollin Film Festival! ๐ŸŽฌโœจ

It was an incredible to honor the tireless creative work of our students on the big screen at Wegmans Auditorium this week. The range of workโ€”from bold experimental pieces to rigorous, moving documentariesโ€”is a testament to the vibrant creative culture we are building within the UR Film & Media Studies program at the University of Rochester.

A deep thank you to our esteemed judges, Stephen Schottenfeld and Evelyne Leblanc-Roberge, for their insight and dedication to evaluating such a diverse and competitive pool of talent, and to Pirooz Kalayeh, master of ceremonies.

Congratulations to the 20th Gollin Film Festival Award Winners! ๐Ÿ†
