... has yet to be annouced, although we can now tell you that the date(s) will be posted on the Maine Film Festival's site in mid-late June. We'll post again once we know ourselves when the film is being screened. We - Sean and Louise - will be introducing the film, and also Bill Douglas's Comrades, which will be screened in its new 35mm print (which looks fantastic, btw!).

Lantera Magicka will receive its English premiere at the Flatpack Festival in Birmingham on 27 March. The screening will start at 4 pm, and go on until 6. (Please note the revised time - it was originally scheduled to start at 3.)


The film will play as a double bill with a magic lantern show by Mike Simkin, who not only appears in Lanterna, but also did the original magic lantern work on Comrades. This is a unique, one-off event not to be missed!

Both myself and Louise will be there to introduce the film.
