In other news, Artistic Director Michelle Carey is currently over in Europe at the Rotterdam and Berlin Film Festivals – she is totally ensconced in films from all corners of the globe and is sure she will bring back some treats for the 2012 program!

MIFF Programmer Al Cossar has also been braving the snow at Sundance – he has seen some knockout films that we’re looking to screen at MIFF this year too.

Keep out of the sun and in the cinema!

 

All the best from the MIFF team.
