In case you missed it, last month we announced the Study Abroad Film Festival winner, East of Here by Alexa Penton of the University of Mississippi. Alexa was one of three finalists whose films were open for voting on Facebook, which also included:
- Japan: A Boy's Journey by Finn Smyth
- Home Sweet Home by Grace Duval Johnston
In total, there were more than 50 films submitted to the Study Abroad Film Festival, and trust us when we say it was not an easy decision. Which is why we invite you to laugh, cry, and live vicariously through our 16 semi-finalists, too!
