The team at Long Distance Film Festival is incredibly excited to announce that David Ehrlich is our third and final juror. He, along with his fellow jurors, will decide the three winners for this year’s jury prize.

David has been the Senior Film Critic for IndieWire since 2016. Prior to that he wrote about film for Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, The Guardian, Time Out New York, and a variety of other publications. He was born in Manhattan and has since made it all the way to Brooklyn, where he now lives with his wife and their son. 

You may recognize him from his top 25 films of the year supercuts, which he has been making since 2012. You can watch all of them at videocountdowns.com 

You can also find him on on Twitter or Letterboxd.

We will be extending our late deadline until March 30th so make sure to submit your film before then! We look forward to seeing your work, and thank you for your continued support.
