I just found out that Birthday Girl has been accepted to this year’s 27th International Fajr Film Festival in Tehran, Iran. I’ve been eager to travel to the Middle East for a long time and I can’t see a better opportunity than this. (Would also be a nice break from Germany’s unwelcoming winter.) The festival runs from Feb. 1st to Feb. 11th 2009.

It’s a bit of a tongue twister…
Next stop for Birthday Girl is the 34th International Filmets Film Festival in Barcelona! The festival takes place from the 14th to the 22nd of November. No word yet when the film will be screening.
I was in Barcelona back in May of this year. I love the city. It’s definitely up there as one of favorite cities in the world.
Some photos I took of Barcelona up on Flickr.

Great news continues. I’m thrilled to announce that Birthday Girl was selected (by a Quebec jury) to be shown at this year’s 12th edition of Cinéma du Québec à Paris!
The festival takes place from November 26th to December 2nd on the Champs-Elysées. I’m going to try and make it to Paris for the screening.
You can check out some photos from my trip to Paris and Strasbourg a few weeks ago.
Just because the song is now stuck in my head.

More good news on the Birthday Girl front. Just got word that my short film was accepted at the Edmonton International Film Festival! The film will be screening Oct. 3rd at 7pm so if you’re in or around the area do check it out.
For those of you in Montreal who might be wondering about the Montreal World Film Festival, unfortunately the festival requires a Canadian premiere and since the film premiered in Vancouver the festival would not consider it.

Birthday Girl will have its French premiere at the Strasbourg International Film Festival!
No word yet as to when the film will be screening but as soon as I know I’ll post the info. This is SIFF’s first year running. Looking forward to being a part of it.

I’m very happy to say that Birthday Girl will have its European premiere at this year’s 31st LUCAS International Children’s Film Festival!
The festival takes place for a week, from September 7th - 14th in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Good thing I’ll still be in Berlin. Can’t wait to present the film!
