Lilly Adams, who will have two films featured in this year’s festival, said one positive from the virtual format is her parents being able to attend the event. “People [who] can t usually make [the festival], or can t make the drive, or can t make the trip are able to come, even though it s through their computer — which is not a detriment,” Adams (senior-film production) said. “It s more of a unifying thing that everyone can come.”
