Self-Reliant Film began as a website devoted to DIY film-making in 2005.
Today, in addition to the blog, Self-Reliant Film is a banner under which Paul Harrill and Ashley Maynor produce and distribute films with compelling stories, a personal sensibility, and regional character.
Paul and Ashley just returned from a 12-city screening tour of the South sponsored by South Arts.
