Edinburgh International Film Festival has announced the line up of the Best of the Fest screenings to be shown on Sunday.
Tickets are on sale now and films screen from Saturday 27 - Sunday 28 June at:
And now for my own Fest of the Fest! Follow the links below for my reviews
Chicken - a beautifully made coming of age drama focussing on a teenager with learning difficulties and his pet chicken.
Scottish Mussel - a romantic comedy focussing on the fight to conserve the freshwater mussel
Black Mountain Poets - a hilarious tale of two sisters on the run who pretend to be poets and hide out at a poetry retreat in the Welsh Mountains
Desert Dancer - amazing choreography in this fictionalised biopic of the Iranian dancer Adshin Ghaffarian
Liza the Fox Fairy - a surreal comedy from Hungary
When Elephants Fight - an important documentary about conflict minerals in the Congo
It's been a great festival and many of the films shown deserve to be released into cinemas.
Disclaimer - I had a press pass for the film festival and attended
free press screenings of these films (except for Liza the Fox Fairy)
I hardly ever go with the "winners" of these things. My tastes are too odd, I guess.
