In loving memory of Purvi Patel

Our hearts are breaking this week. Purvi Patel, an IFC17 alumna, passed away this Monday. She was an amazing woman who was one of the strongest, most badass people we know. She was a storyteller, a creator of worlds, a woman who dared again and again to be herself no matter what anyone thought. Rest in peace, Purvi.
