Her advice and insights on our project, <i>The Tribe</i>, from rough cut to completed film were instrumental and invaluable to its success. It is exciting to think that all filmmakers will have access to her incredible mind and experience through this book." <br>--Tiffany Shlain, award-winning filmmaker</p> <P>Anyone can make a short film, right? Just grab some friends and your handheld and you can do it in a weekend or two before being accepted to a slew of film festivals, right?</p> <P>Wrong.</p> <P>Roberta Munroe screened short film submissions at Sundance for five years, and is an award-winning short filmmaker in her own right.
