#CREATELOUISIANA 2021 French Culture Film Grant Recipient TV Premiere. When Franky finds out his dad is sick and can't afford the treatments he needs, he enlists his crew of friends and movie-making cohorts to enter a local film fest and to compete for the prize of $100,000. The catch is, they have 5 days to complete this monumental project.

 

The recipient of the 2021 #CreateLouisiana French Culture Film Grant, Film Quest, premiered at the New Orleans French Film Festival on Saturday March 12.

The #CreateLouisiana French Culture Film Grant is a unique opportunity for Louisiana filmmakers and is designed to support a thoughtful new film that showcases Francophone culture and talent.  From three finalists, the French Culture Film Grant committee selected Film Quest, a narrative short film, made entirely in French, that tells the story of a superhero-obsessed son who tries to win a film festival, in a last ditch effort to save his dad from certain death.  Film Quest was written and directed by Skyler Stroup and produced by Samuel Craft and Nous Foundation, Inc/ Scott Tilton.
