On Wednesday, January 25th, the Fine Arts Department hosted the 7th Annual Léman Film Festival. This year, 23 student filmmakers submitted films, with 21 being passed to a panel of judges who ultimately selected 14 to be screened as winning projects across nine categories.
This year’s panel consisted of five judges, all of whom are well-respected professionals in the film industry: Vidushi Chadha, Maren Lavelle, Katrina Medoff, Violet Price, Rabia Sultana. Keynote speaker, Maren Lavelle delivered a speech that assured Léman students that simply taking action is the most important thing one can do both in making art and in life.
