CORNWALL FILM FESTIVAL 2011
Cornwall’s only major film festival is just around the corner, offering an inspiring selection of Cornish, British and international screenings plus workshops, talks and special events for all ages – completely filling three days in its new home, Newquay’s Lighthouse Cinema, this weekend.
This year the festival celebrates 10 years of uniquely supporting filmmaking — and filmgoing — in Cornwall as well as Cornish heritage and culture. Almost two dozen features and documentaries plus over 175 short films will be programmed alongside workshops, talks and forums. Many of the low-budget features were made for a song, including three made in Cornwall or by Cornish artists, and over a third of the features were directed by women. What’s not to celebrate?
