Pamela Bowen stars in “Shoot the Moon,” a big winner in Macon

There’s still one day to go here at the 2013 Macon Film Festival, but Jury Award winners were announced last night. “Shoot the Moon” was the big winner, taking home awards for Best Directing and Best Sound Design as well as the Melvyn Douglas Award for Best in Show. Having been a fan of “Shoot the Moon” since RIFF, I couldn’t be happier with its awards haul. “Sal,” having also screened at last year’s Atlanta Film Festival, took home the Best Narrative Feature prize. Other winners included “Address is Approximate,” “Child 31,” “A House, A Home,” “The Silk” and “The Sweatshop.” Filmmakers premiering their films at MaGa were also recognized. Audience Award winners will be announced tonight, as well as awards for Southern Documentary and Music Documentary.
