This is the closest I've come to winning an International Award. Am pleased.
Am also pleased because, thanks to the British Council, I was able to go to the 44th Chicago International Film Festival which was great. Favourite features I saw were 'The Noise In My Head', 'Family Values', 'Gomorrah', 'Pressure Cooker' and 'I've Loved You So Long'. Was also able to see all the shorts with my favourites being 'Eyelids' by Brad Bischoff, 'Sugar' by Alex Beh, 'Standup' by Joseph Pierce, 'John and Karen' by Matthew Walker, 'The Business Trip' by Sean Ellis, 'Jerrycan' by Julius Avery, 'From Head To Toe' by Josie-Anne Lemieux, 'Self-Portrait With Cows Going Home and Other Works - A Portrait of Sylvia Plachy' by Rebecca Dreyfus, 'Peter and Ben' by Pinny Grylls, and 'Sick Sex' by Justin Nowell. Sorry - that was a long list. Here are some pictures...
Will make an effort to go to more festivals from now on.
