CaribbeanTales Newz

The CaribbeanTales Youth Film Festival 2010 Gala Launch was a huge success !

Many people said they found it inspirational, especially the tributes to Claire Prieto-Fuller and Fil Fraser, giants in our community over the past decades. I would like to thank everyone who came out for their support, and everyone who supported behind the scenes. It was a privelege to share this time with you!
