COLOSSAL YOUTH The 9th NUFF festival-review by Neil Young “To me the great hope”, Francis Ford Coppola famously said some 20 years ago, “is that… suddenly one day some little fat girl in Ohio is going to be the new Mozart, and you know, and make a beautiful film with her father’s little camcorder and for once this whole professionalism about movies will be destroyed forever and it will become an art form.”
NUFF 2011 is over An eventful and exciting 9th edition of NUFF has been successfully accomplished. Young filmmakers from all over the world participated in five workshop groups with professional filmmakers as workshop leaders and made five films in one week. 26 films compited in the Nordic youth film competition and 13 in the international competition on five prizes. And the winner is... Well done NUFF A couple of years ago on my first visit to Tromsø, I was inspired by what I saw and experienced. |
