David Turnley Awarded Best Director at Atlanta International Documentary Film Festival
David Turnley was awarded Best Director, Documentary Feature at the Atlanta International Documentary Film Festival for his film Shenandoah, a documentary about a coal mining town with a proud immigrant heritage, once pivotal in fueling America’s industrial revolution and today in decline and struggling to survive and retain its identity, soul and values — all of which were dramatically challenged when four of the town’s white, star football players were charged in the beating death of an undocumented Mexican immigrant named Luis Ramirez.
