“We think the technical caliber and quality storytelling of your film showcases the best of what Hawai’i has to offer.”
Beckie Stocchetti, Executive Director, 2022 Hawai’i International Film Festival

“So excited for AFTER THE ENDLING to be part of CAAMFest 2023. I never thought I would get so emotional over a snail.” Program Associate, CAAMFest 2023

“The Committee appreciated your team’s artistry in creating the characters, the scenes and the great sound design that comprise the story. They noted your inclusion of the devastating effects of invasives on the Hawaiian tree snail population. We’re grateful for your film’s efforts to increase public awareness of the threats posed to native species by invasives.” American Conservation Film Festival 2023
