MY FATHER. MY UNCLE. goes to New Zealand


While in Germany everybody is preparing for New Year's eve the Kiwis in New Zealand are already one year further due to the time difference. Just before they closed the old year Dan Shanan, director of the DOCNZ International Documentary Film Festival send me an e-Mail with an invitation to his festival. One more thing to celebrate tonight. DOCNZ Festival is Australasia’s only international competitive documentary film festival. It is held in New Zealand and showcases the very best in documentary film from New Zealand and around the World. The festival runs from late February in Auckland and Wellington and includes Awards Night, Q&A Sessions with filmmakers and special events.

I wish everybody a happy new year! See you in 2010...
