Congratulations!
Your film "Tiny Sunbathers"
was given the award for best experimental film in the SUFF festival!
In
a couple of weeks you will receive the trophy, which is a handcrafted,
one of a kind handmade stand with a mounted 24carat gold-plated
400ft 16mm film reel.
We screened Tiny Sunbathers twice: first as a video part of a shorts program,
then in 35mm opening for the feature film Night Train.
It was beautiful on the full-size theatre screen!
OK, once again congratulations.
Yours, Steve Creson, Festival Director.
