Some quick updates:
* "Blood Dub and The Matriarch", our Literature Alive Documentary on dbi.young, won the Audience Choice Award at the San Diego Women's Film Festival.
* CaribbeanTales has been awarded funding by the Trillium foundation to present the "Winter Tale" Project as a theatre play in Toronto schools in 2007/8.
* "Word Hammers", our documentary on Nourbese Phillip, will be screened as part of the 4th Mpenzi Film Festival in Toronto, February 2007.
I leave you with a clip of Nourbese Phillip, talking about the gift of reading and books.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy holidays FA and staff. Nice to see this was a busy year for all. I hope all goes well in the new year. Was searching all over for your site... didn't know you switch over to .ca (feeling patriotic now?). When will I get a chance to see Winter Tale?
