[on winning award at TFF 2014] Mate, that's unbelievable. I was just honored to get into the Festival in the first place. Never would have imagined coming away with the audience award and the Best New Director award. I'm just stoked! I don't have any other words in my vocab, I'm just stoked! It was a dream of mine to premiere at Tribeca and that in itself was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had. This warm response to the film is such an honor and I'm so happy to get Clark's story out to the world the way that we have. Clark will be so happy. Show less «
