You have to love it when a plan comes together!

It’s a fascinating process putting together a festival like MIAF. And the Director collects the best and worst of those moments.

Some moments are irreplacible gems. Finding oneself standing in a tiny workshop surrounded by puppets – past, present and future stars of one of the finest puppet animation studios in the world qualifies as such a gem. Being casually asked – as a coffee cup is slid into ones hands – if I’d be interested in seeing their very latest film even though it’s “not quite finished yet” is even better. But putting that film up on the big screen here and now is best of all. will be a personal highlight of MIAF 06 for me.
