But SXSW was a genuine celebration for all the exhausted fi l makers who trudged through the m trenches for years to make their movies. Spending that week with all of those passionate storytellers and curators injected me with a huge sense of pride to be a part of such an incredible community. I couldn't have had a better experience.
