Minnesota has a long legacy of filmmaking from narrative treasures like the Coen brothers’ “Fargo” and Diablo Cody’s “Juno”, to nonfiction icons like Barbara Kopple’s “American Dream.” VC Minneapolis would be integral to building and amplifying this robust community.
A word from your Organizers!
Rachel: The Twin Cities (Minneapolis and St. Paul) are bursting with thoughtful, hard-working and creative filmmakers – I could not be more thrilled to be a part of this community and bring our work to the world.
