Dear Friends & Colleagues
The new festival and market season is underway and I look forward to seeing you at one of many upcoming events – Independent Film Week in NY, CIFF and the Points North Documentary Forum here in Maine, followed by DOKLeipzig and the Documentary Campus Pitching Session, Sheffield and perhaps even IDFA. Here in northern New England, we’ve had a truly lovely summer which means the 6th Camden International Film Festival (Sept. 30 – Oct. 3) will unfold against a brilliant backdrop of 
Fall color. The film selection is fantastic and this 2nd year of the Points North Forum will bring together key industry figures from Europe and the US, with media makers from across New England and beyond. All of it taking place in a special part of the world – beautiful Midcoast Maine.
Our latest portfolio of projects and films features outstanding work, from both established and emerging filmmakers. Summer Pasture on changing nomadic ways in Tibet is at once modern and accessible while portraying a quickly fading way of life. Citizen Architect is startling in its demonstration that beautiful, functional design is for everyone, a foundation that adds depth and inspiration to students’ work. Musical genius is revealed in Play That, Teo and The Brothers Hypnotic and obsessed about in Do It Again. Empowered kids are the theme in A Small Act and The Game Must Go On, issues of development, the environment and our connection with other species are the topics of $H*T!, The Biosphere Experiment and Elephants Never Forget. And two long-awaited projects are now moments away from completion – Raising Renee – a film where the art world, civil rights history and a family promise collide and Crazy Wisdom – a Buddhist path that wends its way across the Himalayas as Tibet is invaded by China , through the Swinging Sixties, to our contemporary world.
Stay tuned!
