Famous for being the first “televised uprising” that was broadcast to the world by Twitter, the film uses a range of cinematic technique, incl...

Well, as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations, th...

I walked back to the Palais and met some more distributors (is that getting boring yet?). I ate lunch and met more distributors. I had a...
