Last year, we reported on the formation of the exciting new platform Exquisite Shorts, which takes a unique approach to curation and distribution. Founded by Canadian filmmaker Sophy Romvari, the platform is run entirely by filmmakers, one of which will select a short film from a pool of submissions.
