Longterminal, a documentary produced and directed by Kristin Royer, M.F.A. ’13, was screened at the Eighth Annual Atlanta International Documentary Film Festival in October. The short film chronicles the stories, challenges and hopes of four patients who have defied the odds and are living—much longer than expected—with incurable cancer. In her director’s statement, the first-time filmmaker explains, “I thought capturing stories like [this] could ... raise awareness about metastatic cancer as a chronic illness rather than a death sentence.”
