​There is a ton of young talent at the festival this year, and Paige McCay and Bri Palmer are no exception. McCay is the director and Palmer is the writer of “Stay”, a student narrative. Both women are students at UNA. The film is set in Florence, and is about a young woman who wants to leave her hometown. She struggles to explain this desire to her boyfriend, who has no desire to leave.
“Stay” made me consider my own relationship with the town I grew up in. I did not want to ‘stay’ in my hometown, and I do not care to go back. So I found the film incredibly relatable, and I think everyone can relate to the love/hate relationship the main character has with her town.
I saw the film screen at the Mane Room on Friday, and after the screening the audience had time to ask McCay and Palmer questions. During the Q&A, they said they were both from small towns, coming to Florence was there escape from them.
Whether you love or hate your hometown, “Stay” is a wonderful escape from it.

Talent is what you need in most cases. There are just things that hard work cannot do. If you work hard, then you will reach something eventually, but that is simply not enough. I believe that having the talent to do things is still what is most important. I know that it is not as great as it sounds, but it is what we should keep on doing. Let us all try to work hard even without talents, I mean it.
