Last night we held an intimate media launch for online media, street press and film bloggers, journalists as passionate about film as we are, and whose support we rely on to spread the word about the festival. Over cider and pizza we revealed our new program guide, showcased our shiny trailers on the BlackBerry PlayBook and previewed of one of the eagerly anticipated documentaries screening next month.
Thanks to Kabuku for being such lovely hosts, to O'Canada for the delish maple-cream cookies (more of those on Opening Night!). Here are a few snaps of the night...
