"We are equally impressed, dedicated and also thrilled in our partnership with Stage 32, the only platform worldwide that is connecting and educating filmmakers through its social network and incredibly supportive community. Through this exciting alliance, we pledge to enable the learning and continued success of all filmmakers, worldwide."
