The Chris Brinker Award is given to a first-time filmmaker whose work is of the same high caliber as Chris Brinker - a San Diego native director who passed too soon. . This year, @smarthouse26 presented the Chris Brinker Award to Ravin Gandhi! . Congratulations to @ravgandhi for receiving this award! Your film, #100DaystoLive, is phenomenal and we can't wait to see what you do next! . . . . @pendrysandiego @morgan.stanley @maseratiofsandiego
