“It’s part of a personal development you have at a certain stage in your career,” the producer says of her foray into screenwriting.
“I had been working with a lot of writers and directors. Somehow, there was an urge to contribute on a different level. To my own amazement, it is going very well. It comes quite naturally and I have the feeling that I will be continuing doing this.”

Size Matters in the upcoming International Film Festival Rotterdam. One of its programming segments totally focuses on the difference that screen size can bring to the movie-watching experience.
To exemplify this difference three extremely large screens are being prepared on the outsides of the biggest office complexes in the center of Rotterdam. Each of these will be the venue for its own specially made movie, and the festival has just announced who the directors are:
-Nanouk Leopold
(director of “Iles Flottantes”, “Guernsey”, “Wolfsbergen")
-Carlos Reygadas
(director of “Japón”, “Battle in Heaven”, Cannes Jury prize winner for “Still Light")
-Guy Maddin
(director of “Brand upon the Brain”, “My Winnipeg")
That’s quite an impressive list!
Of course Guy Maddin is already a site favorite here at Twitch, but it gets even better: his movie will star Isabella Rossellini, who already worked with him on “The Saddest Music in...

The twelve finalists for the 2006 Sundance/Nhk International Filmmakers Awards are: Europe: Veit Helmer / Azerbaijan Dream (Germany)â.
