I am at the Oldenburg Film Festival in Northern Germany, staying out too late, watching too many films and dinking too much coffee. I have been shooting a video blog so that in the next day or so, if you check in, you will be able to get a full feel of this small, intimate and very well run and attended festival…

For now though, I will leave you with the festival synopsis of Gone Fishing… seems like something was lost in translation…

'Amateur angler Bill is about to die. What await him in the afterlife are dreams of his youth and the resuming knowledge, that he has made the big catch. Now it is time for him to redeem his promises of the past. Unbelievable stories become real for the protagonist. Chris Jones compresses the whole fantasticism of Tim Burtons “Big Fish” and intensifies the statement and emotion for the audience fundamentally…'

Blimey. Is that my movie?

Remember, the next blog entry will be the video from the festival.

Onwards and upwards!
