Big news to share! VSF member Rachel Weatherly took the top prize in the feature film category at the Virginia Film Festival’s Screenwriting Competition with her script “Take Off.” Virginia Film Office director Andy Edmunds announced the winners last month, at the 2021 Virginia Film Festival, in Charlottesville. Her script depicts a baggage handler, having defaulted on student loans, recruiting a group of airline workers to help her rob a flight and use the money to pay her debts. Rachel is the fifth VSF member to have won this competition in the past ten years. Congratulations to Rachel on this fantastic accomplishment!
