Friday evening we had filmmaker Marcin Romocki from 8-Bit in town. He told Peter Lucas and I that Ed Halter recommended screening his work at NWFF, which we both were pleasantly surprised by. I found it encouraging that Halter not only knew about NWFF, but also that our reputation preceeds us. The screenings with Marcin were very well attended. It was amazing to listen in on the post film conversations in the lobby. Patrons were talking shop about Nintendo and Atari for nearly thirty minutes as Marcin was bombarded by others who wanted answers to questions not covered in the Q & A. I hope we have another NYC convert on our hands, who will also recommend the venue to New York’s finest indie filmmakers.
