GIFF Brngs 2009 Global Lens Films to Tampa Bay!

The Global Film Intiative   The Global Film Initiative promotes cross-cultural understanding through the medium of cinema. Although American film continues to thrive in the global marketplace, developing world filmmaking has suffered from shifting economic conditions in film financing and distribution. As a result, audiences in the United States have been denied the rich cultural lessons these films have to offer.

The Gasparilla Int'l Film Festival is proud to partner with Global Film Initiative to bring the 2009 Global Lens Series to Tampa Bay.  Films will be screened throughout the year at Studio@620 in St. Pete and various venues in Tampa.  See I Am From Titov Veles on July 18 at Home Theatre Gallery
