Hi Everyone!
I enjoyed every French Film that I saw at the festival
and apparently I'm not the only one as screenings
have been extended to this weekend due to popular demand.
Laurence Anyways, Journal de France, After May,
Sister, Louise Wimmer and Welcome Aboard and not
a romantic comedy amongst them!
All interesting, life stories.
I think that you learn and grow more that way.
SO MANY NEW THINGS!

The Kamayura people are an indigenous tribe in the Amazonian Basin
of Brazil with a population of only 450 to 500 people.
Their name means "a raised platform to keep meat, pots and pans and much like
other small, indigenous cultures around the globe, the Kamayura are struggling
to adapt to the effects of deforestation and climate change.
They're Back!

Win Movie Tickets!
We have 10 Double Passes to giveaway to a special preview of the new
political, action, thriller called The Company You Keep thanks to our
friends at Madman and Think Tank Communications.
Starring Hollywood heroes Robert Redford, Susan Sarandon, Nick Nolte
and Stanley Tucci, the Seattle Times says that the film offers the pleasures of
an old-fashioned thriller.
Robert Redford is in to his 5th decade of films and what an astounding array
of quality roles he has performed in.
One of my favourites is the quirky 1967 film called Barefoot in the Park where
he co-starred with Jane Fonda.
Robert Redford also founded the Sundance Film Festival.
When: Wednesday April 19 @ 6:30PM
Where: Palace Centro Cinema, 39 James Street
Email me back with The Company You Keep in the subject and I'll let
you know before Monday.
I'm gearing up for my Sydney trip next week and very excited
to preview the Spring/Summer collections of our cool Australian
labels: Dress Up, Kinoak, Verner and more ;)
No, there won't be live streamings or goody bags from these designers
but I know that the collections from these young, independent
Australians will be the most interesting, original and inspiring and that's what
we want to see!
See you soon,
Thea X
