Lighthouse screening and 'We the People's' Film Festival...


It has been a very busy few weeks for 'Henry & Sunny'.

On Friday, November 27th 'Henry & Sunny' was screened at the 'We the People's' Film Festival at London Metropolitan University (our UK debut!).

And the following day saw a packed house at the Lighthouse Cinema, Smithfield for our first Dublin screening. Thanks to everyone who came along. It was a truly memorable day.

Since then we've been busy applying to festivals all over the world and we hope 2010 will see 'Henry & Sunny' find an even bigger audience.

The trailer for 'Henry & Sunny' has also been added to the Filmmakers Network channel on Vimeo. Drop by and have a look at some of the other films on there when you can.

Our next screening will be in February at "Culture & Abilities 2010". Full details to follow early in the new year.

We'll be updating the blog in early January with Parts 2 & 3 of Paulo Braganca's interview and there'll be a much anticipated interview with Dorothy Cotter as well. So keep an eye out for that!

Finally, thanks to everyone who's supported us in 2009, especially...
