Mavericks Spirit Award presentation and Conversation with Jesse Eisenberg will occur prior to the Closing Event screening.
Cinequest will bestow its highest honor, the Maverick Spirit Award, to Jesse Eisenberg preceding a screening of the highly anticipated Resistance, a portrait of WWII hero Marcel Marceau.
The look is unmistakable: a confident, youthful pose, with nearly impenetrable eyes, sizing up the situation, ready to seize the opportunity and deliver a calm, razor-sharp intelligence. Eisenberg exudes charisma, reinforced by a keen mind and an underlying sensitivity. The power of his performances is undeniable.
