Hallam Foe triumphs with the Fipresci in Motovun

As the more adventurous readers of our blog have noted, helegis I'm looking at you, Hallam Foe picked up the FIPRESCI award at Motovun. Essentially being the film which the critics in attendance decided to award as their best in show.

From Motovun's site, a description of the Fipresci's organisation:

Fédération Internationale de la Presse Cinématographique – the oldest and most prestigious association of film critics with members from around 50 countries of the world. The association's award, given by its international film critics juries, gained exceptional popularity among film authors.

The night was sultry. Here producer Gillian Berrie, Jamie Bell and David Mackenzie took to the stage to collect the award.

You're Filming Me? Who's Filming You?

A lot of Motovun's charm derives from it's location and the centrality of it's events. Everything occurs within a few streets and, near all, exterior spaces. Audience members chat with filmmakers, revelers gyrate past audience members and those with camera's almost constantly end up filming or taking photos of others filming or taking photos.

Witness: Annabel Sexton joins us again to interview Colin... and his camera... Dougal. It's a not so long story.

Hallam Foe's latest guest blogger... is 4!

You'll be glad to know that we weren't always derelict from duty. As soon as we've had a chance to anti red eye some photos they'll be up here too.

In the meantime possibly the worlds youngest video blogger, Annabel Sexton at 4 years old, joined us in Croatia for a small interview with David Mackenzie prior to the screening of Hallam Foe. I think Colin and I have a lot to learn.

Thanks to Sue, there are indeed some family foe photos over on the Motovun Film Festivals site here.
