F&M Associate Professor of Film Jeremy Moss and Sonia Misra, a former F&M film professor now at Connecticut College, are the festival's co-directors and programmers.

"It has become an F&M initiative, and it's our own curatorial project," said Moss, the College's film & media program director and the chair of the Department of Art, Art History & Film.

The festival includes screening a three-chapter film produced in the newly developed New Gleaners workshop that involved three F&M seniors working with three McCaskey High School students.

These portrait documentaries include features on one of the founders of the Common Wheel, a bicycle shop in Lancaster; a local middle school teacher and professional wrestler; and the founder of The Mix, a nonprofit youth enrichment program.

The seniors 鈥� Simon Taylor, a film and media studies major from New Holland, Pa.; Lauren Proffitt, an art studio major from Lancaster; Idris Mansaray, an English and film major from Laurel, Md. 鈥� also had various duties planning and running the festival.

Taylor will operate all of the screening projectors, while Mansaray and Proffitt will work in hospitality. They have been doing publicity, putting up posters around town, and contacting festival sponsors.

"Since this is the first year they're doing it, we're like the foundation," Taylor said. "We're learning that information now so hopefully in future years, they don't really have to think about it."

The students say the collaborative experience filled some of the experience gap COVID caused.

"I felt that by working on this, I'm getting back lost time and some sense that I'm getting an experience I wasn't able to get before and I won't necessarily get in the same way when I graduate," Mansaray said.
