More Than $120,000 Value in Prizes To Be Awarded At the 2012 Ventura Film Festival
Ben-Hur Sepehr – “The Desperate” – WINNER BEST SHORT FILM at the 2010 Ventura Film Festival
I submitted to your film festival for a couple reasons, protecting our environment, secondly, a film which I acted was accepted there years prior, entitled “EXODUS FALL” starring Rosanna Arquette, and thirdly, your website and video on the website just kicked so much ass – it seems like the place that I have to be at should you guys accept our film.
