Virtual keyboard solidarity alone will
not sustain Haiti's recovery. Tangible projects are needed on the
ground with medium and long-term focus.
The
critics should not forget that the 60-year old Berlin International
Film Festival started at a time when Germany was dotted with World War
II rubble. The Sundance Film Festival started on a very modest footing.
The theme of the maiden edition of CineAyiti International Film Festival is “Cinema and National Recovery.”
Before
the quake of 12 January 2010, Haiti had one film festival (Festival
Film Jakmèl) on the Southern Corridor initiated by the respected Ciné
Institute. There existed also a young but vibrant home video scene with
inputs from the Haitians in the Diaspora (USA, Canada, UK, France).
This
"CineAyiti International Film Festival" in Cap - Haitien on the
Northern Corridor, seeks not to only complement the Southern Corridor
event but also support the emergence of a diversified Haitian Audio
Visual Industry after the quake of 12 January 2010.
Many
film-making countries like the USA, UK, Canada, China, South Korea,
Germany, France, South Africa or Nigeria have more than five different
annual film festivals each.
Therefore,
Haiti having two film festivals - the "Festival Film Jakmèl" on the
South in Jacmel and "CineAyiti International Film Festival" on the
North of the country in Cap-Haitien is a positive development and the
winners will be the Haitian and international creative talents.
By
submitting your film, getting your accreditation or becoming a patron
,you contribute towards the sustained concrete recovery of Haiti's
motion pictures industry.

I was afraid I was going to have to introduce myself. I'm here because of my loyalty to Paul Newman. Our autobiography? We met many years ago through work and became pals. When we became friends. One thing we agreed upon was that we both took work seriously, but did not take ourselves seriously. We played a lot of games/pranks and had a lot of fun, some of it mythology, some of it truth. As for life in general, we were both aware of the joy of success. Along the way, he ad the chance to fo...
