Held and George's first feature film "Topside" premiered at 77th Venice International Film Festival. "Topside" won the Mario Serandrei Award for Best Technical Achievement at Venice, and the jury award for Best Director at South by Southwest. "Topside" has been praised by critics, landing on The Hollywood Reporter's list of the "20 Best Films From the Toronto and Venice Festivals". Sheri Linden of The Hollywood Reporter said the film is "a striking debut, cinematic and affecting." Eric Kohn of Indiewire called the debut film "riveting," saying, "Logan George and Celine Held's debut is a taut mother-daughter survivor story with a breakthrough performance [at] its center."
