BEV Springs 2012
With spring in our step, wonderful plans in bud for our next full film festival in 2013 and our sights as always on bringing you the best of new work by women filmmakers and artists, Birds Eye View celebrates International Women’s Week 2012 with a trio of visionary and glittering events.
Taking to the stage to open our International Women's Day Gala will be gorgeous, two times Golden Globe Award nominee Romola Garai (The Hour, The Crimson Petal and the White, Atonement); the evening will go on to follow the same format as our Opening Nights of the last seven years, with a celebration of the best new filmmaking talent from around the world, panel discussion with special guests and a live DJ. This is closely followed by our two-part four-film retrospective Sound & Silents: Mary Pickford Revived, which celebrates the wonderful work of Hollywood's most successful woman, with premieres of new live scores from cutting edge female musicians.
