Trailers for all official selections and winners in each category will be posted on the TusCon website with bio information for the filmmakers, if submitted.  Many will enter and only a few will be selected in each category.  

The Film Festival is presented in partnership with Picture Arizona, LLC and officiated in part by acclaimed producer, actor, director, music manager and arts advocate Eric Schumacher www.picarizona.com
