The Hostess by Dylan Gee
We are proud to announce that Dlyan Gee (UGFTV '19), has won 2021 Sundance Ignite x Adobe Fellow for The Hostess.
The Hostess is about how a restaurant hostess copes with her work environment by escaping into her imagination. As her night shift progresses, she begins to lose touch with reality. It was a film made in their undergrad thesis class, 2019. It had a special screening at the 2022 Sundance Festival.
