The Kings of Queens: King is a Fink at QIFF
When we came out to New York this weekend, we had 3 main goals:
- To survive the screening of Snow Bunny at the Queens International Film Festival (QIFF)
- To catch up with old friends from high school and college
- To meet up with new friends we’ve made through Twitter
We are happy to report that we achieved all of our goals and more. We’ll write more about our experience at this festival when we get back to Chicago, but right now we’d just like to thank some special people.
- Big thanks to artist and good friend Leontine Greenberg (@leontinemay on Twitter) for showing us the city and celebrating our screening at QIFF alongside her own successful art opening at My Plastic Heart.
- Thanks to Maria Lokken (aka @Maria_56 – Twitter friend / television producer / class act) for coming to our screening and mentioning it on her blog.
- Thank you to filmmaker Matt Shea (@MattOfAllMedia on Twitter) for his tireless tweeting about the QIFF experience, for hanging out with us, and for sharing a copy of his QIFF-screened movie Patriotic Danger.
- Thanks to Eren Gulfidan (@Gulfi on Twitter) from the Film Annex, an incredibly kind and supportive woman whom we hope to get to know more in the near future.
Here are a couple of pictures from our wonderful weekend:
