BEST NEW DOCUMENTARY DIRECTOR AWARD WINNER: KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON

The Award for Best New Documentary Director goes to Alan Hicks for Keep On Keepin' On:

Trumpet legend Clark Terry has mentored jazz wonders like Miles Davis and Quincy Jones, but his most unlikely friendship is with Justin Kauflin, a 23-year-old blind piano player with uncanny talent but debilitating nerves. As Justin prepares for the most pivotal moment in his budding career, Terry’s ailing health threatens his own. Charming and nostalgic, Alan Hicks’ melodic debut celebrates an iconic musician while introducing an emerging star of equal vibrancy.
