Jane and Louise were thrilled and sad they had not been able to attend what they know to be such a well-curated, warm, beautiful and eclectic festival. Being a big fan of Portugal myself and seeing all of Laurent Crouzeix’s posts - I had been feeling a hint of wish-I-was-there throughout.

All my feature projects - and I guess my shorts too in terms of “feature status” - are pretty much with first time directors. Sometimes I long to be at the stage where I can be working with more established directors – albeit them also being the first-timers I’m working with, only them (and me) having MADE that first feature!!! –. Get me out of perpetual development please…
