Her Favorite Patient nominated for Best Comedy Short and Best Ensemble - Narrative Short by Reuben Hernandez

We’re excited to announce that Her Favorite Patient is nominated for Best Comedy Short and Best Ensemble - Narrative Short at the 11th annual Queens World Film Festival! Congrats to our cast Barbara Miluski, Isabelle Pierre, Clay Russell, our writer/producer Brady Evan Walker, and our entire crew! I’m honored to share this recognition with our cast and crew and grateful that Queens World Film Festival has selected our film to screen live at their festival this year.

Thanks to everyone that came out to our live screening in Long Island City on Saturday. It’s nice to have the collective experience of sharing our work in person on the big screen once again, and it feels like we’re starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Lighthouse International Film Festival by Reuben Hernandez

Lighthouse International Film Festival was an incredible experience and is hands down one of my favorite film festivals. I had the opportunity to meet and learn from Guy Nattiv, Oscar winning director of Skin, and numerous other talented filmmakers and industry people. Some friends and fellow Filmshop members screened at LIFF and it was fun seeing so many familiar faces. My family also enjoyed attending the festival and my 8 month old daughter ate lobster for the first time, thanks to Charlotte and the rest of the crew at the hospitality house. I highly recommend the festival and will definitely be coming back. Thanks to the entire team at Lighthouse Intl FF for such a memorable and wonderful experience!
