It's turning out to be a great month for festival news: Shooting Freetown will be screened at the Göttingen International Ethnographic Film Festival, Germany.
The festival takes place from May 9-13, 2012 in the Paulinerkirche (below) in the city of Göttingen, Lower Saxony.
The film will compete in the Student Competition on May 9th and was chosen from 155 films submitted this year. I'll be attending the festival in person to take part in discussions.
Very much looking forward to visiting Germany again!
