Cayman Islands: CayFilm 2018 played to a Full House
Earlier in the year, Festival Director Tony Mark, had announced CayFilm was cancelled. Then this month he announced the show would go on in a very much watered down format.
Mark said, “I was devastated when we had to cancel CayFilm this year because I felt we were just gaining some momentum as we approached our fifth anniversary. Skipping a year would have been a step in the wrong direction, and I was disappointed that Cayman film enthusiasts would miss out on seeing some amazing movies. I am so grateful to our new partner PSI-Key Entertainment who basically came in and saved the day, and I can’t wait to see these films on the big screen and celebrate the talent of our local filmmakers.”
The films shown were all local and comprised:
Toscin: Made in Cayman
Letting Go
After Work
Reberth
Canvas
Interloper
We Will Live
Let me say EVERY film shown at the Festival were excellent but we all have a favorite, don’t we? Mine was Teri Quappe’s “Interloper”.
It was shot in both Scotland and Cayman. The story taken from the programme says:
The music was supplied by her parents – Chuck and Barrie.
It was a wonderful evening and I can’t wait for the full 2019 version – SOON COME!
