Bryan Louzil, Festival Founder and Mometu’s VP of Business Development, expressed enthusiasm for this year’s event: “The College Film Festival embodies Mometu’s mission to champion emerging voices in film. It’s an incredible opportunity to spotlight the creativity and talent of tomorrow’s filmmakers, and we can’t wait to see the bold and imaginative stories they bring to life.”
