Dinner and applause at TIFF

posted by Charlotte Meyer at 1h14 GMT on Sep 18

http://www.tiff07.ca/images/films2007/708091835578065.jpgLast week TiFF was full on and we had several of our people there. Nick Fraser gave a presentation on Why Democracy? - "one of the most ambitious documentary series ever undertaken," according to Mr. Fraser.

Daniel Junge and Siatta Scott Johnson, the directors of Iron Ladies of Liberia, were both there. According to our spies they got three standing ovations during the directors' Q&A!

Our spies also took pictures, so you can see for yourself what TIFF was like! All you have to do is go to our FlickR page.
