鈥淭he overall quality of films submitted to the festival this year was astounding, forcing faculty to make hard choices on selections 鈥� so much so that we are exploring the idea of expanding Controlled Chaos in the coming years,鈥� said Joshua Russell, WCU film and television program coordinator. 鈥淏ut, the big win for our program this year comes from the community of Western North Carolina that supported students with locations, props, casting and finances. I鈥檓 really excited to share this slate of films with them.鈥�
