Students at Perry Meridian 6th Grade Academy welcomed the filmmakers of the Heartland Film Festival to Indianapolis with welcome letters introducing filmmakers to our city. These letters were well-received by the filmmakers. Mohamed Diab, the winning filmmaker from Cairo even took the time to respond personally. Diab was touched by the letters and created a thank you video from his homeland to show his gratitude. Not only did these students’ letters advocate for the hospitality of our city but our country as well.
