In a dark corner on the mean city streets of @prov In a dark corner on the mean city streets of @provocity, @kellyltappan continues the badassery of the FilmQuest Shot on Film series by @johnnycallme from the 2024 festival. She rocked the fest with her performance in the Best Sci-Fi short film, Universe 25, and brought a whole gaggle of great filmmakers along with her. Just another one of the incredible portraits Johnny Call captured of one of the hundreds of talented filmmakers who attended the festival. Who will we show off next?
