Festival of Cinema NYC hosted a second photo call as the film festival headed into its final weekend (It’s one of the rare film festivals to still have a long enough schedule that it has TWO weekends) The carpet saw a visiting filmmaker from Iceland (REDUX’s Heimir Bjarnason, a filmmaking team with two flms at the fest (John Gray, Melissa Jo Peltier, and Marilys Ernst with the films THE GAME IS UP: DISILLUSIONED TRUMP VOTERS TELL THEIR STORIES and THE LITTLE DRUMMER BOY), Michelle Girolami, who was put through her paces all over New York City in the sci-fi thriller IMPLANTED, the trio (Tim Martin, Nickolas Manesiotis, and Alexx Diaz) from the short film SUSHI, and DANCE TILL DAWN’s Ayesha Adamo making her last appearance at a fest in the states before moving to study in Amsterdam. In other words, there was actually a lot going on for a modest film festival photo call.
