GI Film Festival 2017 Submissions

Check this out—I found this really cool film festival. GI Film Festival is held every year in Washington D.C. The festival honors all veterans and creates a space that offers connection. GIFF is an important platform for veterans to connect with like-minded individuals. I would like to give a special thank you to the founders of the festival, Laura Law-Millet and Brandon Millet.
