New Brunswick director Greg Melanson’s first feature-length film,
Both Sides Of The Gun, has been selected to participate in the JETS Initiative, an annual international pitching competition held by WEPfilms in a Telefilm-supported Berlin festival.
“I’ve had this story in my head for so long and it feels very vivid and real, it’ll be really something else to start bringing it to real life,” said Melanson.
Melanson was born in Saint John and pursued directing after graduating from UNB Fredericton in 2010, where he directed short films with the New Brunswick Film Co-Op in 2010 and 2011.
