Sam Bailey and Alex Ricou worked on some copy for the Fresh Flix selection, programmed by the Future Producers, for the Encounters festival catalogue this week.  Good job.

FRESH FLIX: SHOOT FROM THE HIP
Wed 18th Sept 09.30 (school screening with directors Q&A)

Dur 1 hour 30 min

‘Coming of age’ is revisited in these five films, which depict visceral and compelling accounts of people taking control – from a girl lost in fantasy, to a young woman exploring her cultural identity through to a group trying to get through a single meal. This collection of films heralds the skill and power of story-telling coming from female directors from across Europe. Interested in filmaking? Aged 15 – 19? Join us for industry led workshops inspired by our Shoot from the Hip programme on Sat 21st Sept.
