post film fest

Hi. Now that Tromsø International Film Festival is finished, I can catch up on some onjo-ing. I saw some good films, a couple of great films, and a lot of short films. I don't really see the point of choosing a favorite, but I will recommend a few to you.

"The Cats of Mirikitani" - about an elderly Japanese-American artist who spent much of his life living on the streets of New York and drawing pictures of cats and his internment camp in California.

"Chronicle of an Escape" - about four men who are victims of torture at a detention camp during the Argentinian coup d'état of 1976 and how they ultimately escape.

"...More than 1000 Words" follows two years in the life of world-famous Israeli photo journalist Ziv Koren.

If you ever get a chance to see any of these ones, do it.
