Kianna Davis – Out in the Desert 2013 Most Valuable Volunteer
A big thank you to Ms. Ajia Simone for being our beautiful festival hostess, and to Keith Price as well.
Thanks to the many filmmakers who came from all over the world. Most of all, thanks to our incredible volunteers, staff and sponsors – without you, the festival would not have been able to happen. To our wonderful audience – it’s because of all of you that Out in the Desert 2013 was such a great success.
Thank you all so very, very much!
