LAFF: Loot
I loved Loot by Darius Marder, the documentary competition winner at this year’s Los Angeles Film Festival. Marder was in the Spotlight on Documentary program the year I managed it (2006), so as you’ve read here before, I enjoy catching up with them and seeing how things have come together.
Austin to Los Angeles, But First…
When I managed the Spotlight on Documentaries program at the then-IFP Market-now-Independent Film Week, I had the pleasure of inviting PJ Raval and Jay Hodges with their project Trinidad. Jay and PJ were wonderful guests and really seemed to take advantage of what the Market had to offer. I’m excited to announce that they will be world premiering their film at the Los Angeles Film Festival in June!
Bryan Poyser and I, from the Austin Film Society, will be there to cheer them and the other Austin filmmakers on (more on that later) but before LA comes raising that last bit of cash! They are holding a special sneak preview here in Austin and I’d like to encourage folks in the area to attend. Not in Austin? No prob. Join us in LA!
