SEE Film Fest is not only
about seeing movies.
Though it shows the latest
and best films from South Eastern Europe, a wonderful side benefit of the five day
event is getting to meet the filmmakers, writers, directors, aficionados,
artists, and simply natives of the area.
In 2011, after the screening
of the Bulgarian traditional music documentary “May It Fill Your Soul” by
UCLA's Tim Rice, the amazing musical couple profiled in the movie Ivan and
Tzvetanka Varimezov chatted with us and caught us up on what they are doing
now.
They were lovely and charming
and even invited me to audit the UCLA class they teach. I did attend their
upcoming concert as well, and it was such a delight.
The venue is intimate and
comfortable with very little hype surrounding it.
You could meet a hunky Greek
director or even an Albanian lawyer – you never know! SEE Fest is for everyone.
Don’t miss it this year. I’ll
look for you!!
