Trail End won Best of the Festival

"Trail End" won the Director's Award for Best of the Festival at the 2007 TriMedia Film Festival in Fort Collins, Colorado.

The film is a simple, subtle, bittersweet short film about a man determined to make one last ride across Kansas on his beloved appaloosa. It showcases the talents of Barry Corbin, a veteran character actor -- you may not know the name, but you'll recognize him from lots of supporting roles, including TV's "Northern Exposure." It also showcases the surprisingly beautiful and not-flat-at-all Kansas scenery.

The TriMedia Film Festival was proud to show the film, and we're sure filmmaker Shannan Keenan has a brilliant future.
