Past winners include Patrick Tobin's "Cake," which went to be made into a film starring Jennifer Aniston, and "Down the Bone," Debra Granik's eventual directorial debut. In addition to a cash prize, winners receive an all-expenses paid, month-long artist-residency with the Screenwriters Colony, a mentorship program dedicated to supporting the next generation of writing talent.
