Chaja & Mimi in India and Uruguay

Program flyer of the Punta del Este Jewish Film Festival 2014

Chaja & Mimi is screened on February 3rd at the Jewish Film Festival Punta del Este in Uruguay and on Feburary 15th at the ViBGYOR Film Festival in Thrissur in India, hte biggest alternative film festival in South Asia - this years focus: gender justice. I am very happy about seeing the movie in its international version of 2013 going down well with the festivals.

Maybe even more enthusiastic I am about the funny names some festivals bestow upon me. In Uruguay I am Eric Essen, an Israeli filmmaker, and for keeping it coherent they also changed the release date and the synopsis. With me is the female Italian filmmaker, whose movie We Weren't Given Anything for Freei just has been screened in Veracruz...

On Wednesday, February 12th my movie November will be shown in the Berlin Loophole (Boddinstraße 60), duing the Boddinale festival. I am curious how they will call me...
