Episode Synopsis

On the latest episode of the ArtiGras Podcast, we sit down with Noelia Solange, Co-Founder of Subtropic Film Festival, and filmmaker David Hamzik. From launching a truly indie festival in West Palm Beach to hosting year-round pop-up screenings and workshops, Noelia and David share how community, collaboration, and Florida’s distinct creative energy are shaping a new film culture across South Florida. This conversation explores how Subtropic curates shorts by feeling and theme, why opening night at the Norton Museum matters, and how partnerships—from hands-on film workshops to cross-city screenings—keep local filmmakers in the spotlight. We dig into creative highs, on-set curveballs (rainstorms and 4 a.m. shoots), and the business side of art: how to sustain creativity by surrounding yourself with the right team.
