This online film festival is born out of the idea that the film community can come together in times of crises, both in celebration of films and in support by providing much needed relief for Covid-19 efforts.

Alex Kay Potter
photographer
Alex Potter is a photographer from the Midwest living in the Middle East. She is currently based in Yemen.
She began her career in Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes. After growing restless with her nursing job, Alex picked up to document post-revolution Yemen, a land with zero lakes, but plenty of mountains to climb. In 2012, she was selected as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar, and moved to Lebanon.
Though she didn’t study photography, Alex has attended the NYTimes Lens Review, Eddie Adams Workshop, and a VII Masterclass, which were much more beneficial than your average classroom. Since 2012 she has been chosen for the Chris Hondros Student Fellowship, Lucie Foundation Emerging Scholarship Commended (2012, 2013, 2014), PDN Photo Annual, American Photography (29,30) , and the LOOKbetween Fellowship, among others.
