Each year, The Independent Film Critics of America’s Filmmaker-In-Residence gives a special award at that year’s IFCA Award ceremony.
A first in the film critic industry, IFCA is proud to have a Filmmaker-In-Residence position to join critics and filmmakers together and share the joy that is going to the movies.
The Filmmaker-In-Residence award is like its namesake, creative in nature, and allows the filmmaker complete freedom to choose which film they want to award and why.
Director Shem Bitterman is this year’s Filmmaker-in-Residence. He had this to say about the film he has chosen to award.
