More Film Festival stuff...

So I went back for the ever popular 'Kafa sa..' feature, which had the creator of 'Walz with Bashir', Sorry to say I haven't seen the film, but I intend to it sounds fascinating, as a concept. The director Ari Folman (sic) speaks very good English, and so did the interviewer. Sometimes interviews have been in three or four languages, so you have consecutive interpretation, which is hard to follow, other times interviews are in Bosnian, for me 'nema problema' but today almost came as a relief.

Ari's film has as a very important part of the story, the Sabra and Shatilla massacres, when Israel invaded Lebanon. Ari was very puzzled by the lack of much political reaction in Israel to his fim, at least initially.

There were some excellent questions from the audience, mostly young students of film-making from here in Sarajevo. All in all, a very excellent 'Kafa sa...'

There will be pictures tomorrow. I don't want to abuse the hospitality of the nice people at IT Computers by doing uploads of film clips and pictures here, I probably COULD, but it would be rude!
