Dispatch from Austin: Congrats to Ben

I've been without internet in Austin, TX, enjoying SXSW with a black market filmmaker's badge (more on that in a later post). In any case , I wanted to be one of the first to congratulate my good friend Ben Piety who won a Special Jury Prize for his film The Lonely Lights. The Color of Lemons.
