Lance Hammer
Lance Hammer helped to redefine the concept of independent film with his 2008 feature debut, "Ballast." The former architecture student and artist drew inspiration from the European scene of the 1960s and the landscape of the Mississippi Delta for the film, which detailed the relationship between three emotionally displaced souls in the grip of poverty. The largely improvised feature took two years to complete but won Hammer considerable acclaim and awards from critical circles, which helped to confirm his status as a filmmaker with a refreshingly unique cinematic vision.
