When "Krisha" premiered at the SXSW Film Festival last year, audiences gave the film standing ovations. Critics hailed it and director Trey Edward Shults for the film's compelling storyline. Indeed, the film's directing and acting are compelling, but the movie's innovative editing is what really stands out.
The year 2015 is at the halfway mark and there have already been a number of disappointing films released. However, there have been a number of great films that are sure to make end of the year lists.
The SXSW Film Festival has announced its annual Grand Jury Prizes with "Krisha" winning the Narrative competition and "Peace Officer" winning for best documentary.
