Director: sasha c. damjanovski.
Alice and Neil should be having the perfect holiday in their summer house in the country, she working with her dancers in the conservatory and he sipping on his tea by the lake, watching the amazing sky. Except it's not really a holiday, Neil is on a year's leave from work, pending further tests in his mysterious condition, and Alice, well she has her own problems. But is Neil's 'plan' really the solution?
Following in the footsteps of the Australian
version of the Sexy International Film Festival (SIFF) Melbourne, The
Sexy International Paris Film Festival(SIPFF)(Association Loi 1901)
has been created as a uniquely francophone version of the festival, focusing on
strong Francophone content as part of its international program.
Already in its second year in
Australia the festival has already doubled in size and popularity due to its
themes which resonate with audiences.
The Sexy International Paris Film Festival's
(SIPFF)
goals are to discover, promote and screen the best independent films from
around the world that explore the themes of "Sexy" -sexuality, love, marriage,
divorce, lust, romance, seduction, relationships and the erotic.
The festival aims to enlighten, educate, create
discussion and debate, as well as allow audience interaction in relation to
various projects within SIPFF.
The festival follows a code of ethic, with the
festival being porn-free and smut-free. Films considered to be pornographic in
nature will not be screened at the festival.
There will be an audience vote to determine the
Sexiest Short and Sexiest feature of the festival as well as a jury to
determine the best short and best feature of the festival.
As well as the main festival in June 2010, SIPFF
will be presenting MiNi SiPFF, as part of the Zonerotikon Festival ("Zonerotikon
rien à voir avec le X / Cabarets de Cirqu'Conférences
pluridisciplinaires") at Cabaret Sauvage, a wonderful circus tent at Porte
de la Villette (Paris) with screenings throughout 2010.
Dans les traces de la version
australienne du festival de film international sexy (SIFF) - Melbourne, The
Sexy International Paris Film Festival (SIPFF) (Association Loi 1901) a été
créé en tant que version francophone du festival, dans le but de développer
tout particulièrement la partie francophone du programme de sa version
mondiale.
Déjà dans sa deuxième année en
Australie, le festival n'a pas attendu plus longtemps pour doubler en volume
ainsi qu'en popularité grâce à ses thèmes qui ont su séduire tous les publics.
Les objectifs du Festival
International du film Sexy de Paris (SIPFF) sont de découvrir, promouvoir et
projeter sur écran les meilleurs films indépendants provenant du monde entier
et qui explorent les thèmes dits « sexy » : la sexualité, l'amour, le mariage,
le divorce, la convoitise, la romance, la séduction, les rapports humains et
l'érotisme.
Le festival vise à éclairer,
instruire, créer discussions et débats tant que le permet l'interaction de
l'assistance par rapport à divers projets au sein du SIPFF.
Le festival adopte un code
d'éthique bien qu'il soit ouvert à beaucoup de films de type sexy ou quelques
peu pornographiques. Ainsi, les films considérés purement pornographiques ne seront ni sélectionnés ni projetés
lors du festival.
Il y aura un vote de la part
de l'assistance ainsi que de la part d'un jury pour déterminer le film et le
court métrage les plus sexy du festival.
En complément du festival principal programmé en
juin 2010, le SiPFF présentera un "MiNi SiPFF", en tant qu'élément du
festival de Zonerotikon (« Zonerotikon rien à voir avec le X / Cabarets de
Cirqu'Conférences pluridisciplinaires ») au Cabaret Sauvage, magnifique
Chapiteau de bois et de velours, serti de miroirs et de vitraux, Porte de la
Villette (Paris) avec des spectacles tout au long de l'année 2010.

Five years following the infamous chemical and biological bombing of Halabja, Diyari, a Kurdish/ American good Samaritan, returns to his homeland to build an orphanage in what is left of Halabja. He meets Jiyan, a ten-year old orphan and a survivor of the chemical attack, doomed to live with a burn scar covering most of her right cheek.. A strong bond between the two ensues and later he names his orphanage after her. During the course of his stay in Halabja, Diyari meets a colorful bunch of townsfolk, many of whom remain physically and/or psychologically marked with the effects of the chemical agents. Among them is Jiyan's only living relative, Shérco, a twelve-year old who has also lost his family to the poison gas. While Shérco dreams of marrying her one day, Jiyan dreams of seeing flowers, a picture of which she finds on the back of a magazine. In addition to building the orphanage, Diyari brings a spark of hope and happiness to Shérco's and Jiyan's lives. However, this affair is short lived. As he leaves, the two orphans turn back to their lonely shells with very little light to look forward to - a familiar state of mind echoing throughout Halabja. Diyari departs with a promise to return, but now leaving a tearful Jiyan at the place where he first meet her - on a swing under a lonely tree on a small lonely hill.

GOD NO SAY SO
Sierra Leone 2009
Brigitte Uttar Kornetzky
Director, Editor, DOP
After 11 years of a war they did not understand, rife with horrible war crimes, Sierra Leoneans live fraternally and peacefully despite a ruthless corruption, which strips them of the basic necessities. God No Say So weaves a colourful mosaic of Sierra Leone and her peoples' extraordinary forgiveness and resilience.
In a crux moment, a baker maimed during the conflict still feels unsettled and cannot find peace within himself. With the camera characteristically close, he is asked if he would seek revenge against the man who did this to him, he replies after a long moment of silence, "Me? God no say so."
Yet God is not the centerpiece for tales of survival, access to water, education, hard work, prostitution, and fear of accused war criminal Charles Taylor. While filming, Taylor literally flew over in a helicopter on his way to jail in Freetown, which was terrifying for everyone being filmed at the time. His trial at The Hague should end this Fall, with the sentencing perhaps in 2010.
Over two hundred at time survived the war in the belly of a bridge above the ocean. Kornetzky was the first outsider to see it. The core group of survivors breaks rocks beside the bridge for a meager living. "No stealing. No fighting. Righteousness. Together as one." It's a contemporary post war bohemia.
In a long conversation between a broker and a woman with keen wit who hustles Whites when she can, to support her family, we find a treasure about hope, dreams, and optimism.
"Corruption is so rife", we hear a journalist say, that everything goes to a few people, while the others suffer miserably. Then the camera descends into a shantytown by the ocean.
God No Say So captures a spot in human history so dark that it demands a new order of our minds. Searching within so much confusion doesn’t find solid ground. The victims’ minds still turn, as do ours, with their outrageous reality. The criminal acts are enormous. Could our neighbors – our children - could we do this? Why is this happening to this good spirited people?
Sometime when you are in Myrtle Beach you find have the unlucky blinding from a "so-called" viewing of the LOCAL creepy freaks Kluckin fuckin Films. This low grade trash spectacle of a train wreck is run by a Troll and his Ho. She is getting ready to take him to the cleaners and he will be stuck raising a monster some kind of virgin birth offsping spit out at the last death metal festival. Looking like unkept low life grifters, these creeps call themselves film makers, in the boring ...
Since 2007 the LIDF has worked to ensure that London is host to exciting, diverse, challenging and inspiring films from every corner of the world. The LIDF is committed to providing a platform for international documentaries and their directors. It does this by working with globally recognised partners and venues, such as the British Museum, the Barbican Centre, and the Royal Society of the Arts on a year-round programme of screenings and other events that includes the 10-day London International Documentary Festival.
The LIDF’s ongoing commitment to what it calls ‘Conversations in Film’ creates a unique kind of film festival. The films within LIDF are the starting point for a series of programmed ‘conversations’ – panel discussions and workshops – that bring diverse audiences together to go beyond the films themselves in order to engage with social, cultural and political issues in the company of policy makers, academics, journalists and other cultural commentators
Having celebrated its third year the LIDF is now looking forward to working with new partners and presenting another feast of film and debate in April / May 2010.

What were your fears as you set about making a film of a supposedly ‘unfilmable' book? "The biggest thing was that it was a sacred text. And with Gabriel Garcia Marquez there are people who cannot possibly have known him who call him by his diminutive Christian name - he's known as ‘Gabo' - so there's a kind of possessiveness which is very daunting. Beyond that this is a great, great book. I can be as snippy as I like about people thinking that they own it because I think I...
