Asian AIF Festival 2005 Info and Invitation
Hola amigos, amigas, and pelicula consumers and makers,
I’ve emailed the invitation below to everyone on my mailing list, and posted it on other listservs, postings, street telephone poles, basketball player’s forearms, airplane with a smoke thingy, even tried smoke signals. If I can get 28 doves, pigeons, or the underappreciated crows, I would make them circle the city and spell out the details too. Some unionized, some freelancers. Anyway, so I thought if anyone accidentally stumbles upon my humble blog…wham..another invitation. As they say, you can’t buy publicity like this. So here it goes again. Some of the information may be already…ahem…informed before, but I can’t edit them out now. I’ve got sandwich boards to write on.
Oh, yes…I’ll be back with more ‘History of Pretty’ and will be posting photos from the production. Oh yeah! —————————-Here is the posting.——–

I’ll be there with bells on — I probably won’t have slept for a week, so I’ll need the bells to keep me awake, anyway.
Nice blog site, Emon!
I’m very fond of the tagline: “Two women find each other at an art gallery one afternoon. A week later, they find themselves in a bloody mess.” This is a film I want to see!
