A Boat Retold - RAI Ethnographic Film Festival Screening

A Boat Retold will be screening at the 13th RAI Festival of Ethnographic Film, which this year is being held in Edinburgh. The festival runs from 13-16 June, and Boat screens on Friday 14th, in the 3.15-4.45pm slot. This version of the film will feature the soundtrack newly remixed by Giles Perring.

We hope to attend the screening to introduce the film and do a Q & A.

The Glasgow Film Festival screening of Boat went very well - a good turn out and the film had received a good reception. Many thanks to all who came.

The film is currently out on the rounds of other festivals. When one bites, we'll let you know.

Folie à Deux Maine Screenings Announced

Folie à Deux will have its first public screenings at the Maine International Film Festival in July. The first screening will be on Sunday 15th July at 6:15pm and then again on Saturday, July 21 at 6:30pm, both at Railroad Square Cinema. Myself, your long-suffering director/producer/blogger, leading lady Sally Scott and producer Louise Milne will be at the first screening, where we will either introduce the film or give a short talk/Q&A afterwards. For the second screening, it will just be myself and Dr Milne. We're delighted to be taking the film to Maine - it's a great festival run by real film enthusiasts, and it's one of my favourite places. Louise and I will be at MIFF for the whole festival, which we're looking forward to enormously, and it's so nice that Sally will be joining us for the first screening.

Tickets for the July screenings are now on sale here:

We get a quick mention by Ian Stephen in his article on the Tip of the Tongue Festival on Jura here. The screening of A Boat Retold was well- received, and the festival itself is was unmissable. We all hope it happens again next year.
