Shaandiin Tome was on the road when she heard the news. The 29-year-old New Mexico-based Diné filmmaker was on her way back from a whirlwind week at South by Southwest (SXSW) Film Festival in Austin where her documentary “Long Line of Ladies,” which she co-directed with Rayka Zehtabchi, had just screened. Her partner was watching a live-stream of the awards ceremony on Twitter when the film was announced as winner of 2022’s Best Documentary Short.
