We don’t know about you all but we are beyond excitedabout the upcoming Women’s International Film & Arts Festival (WIFF) and you of course will be hearing a lot about WIF leading up to March 26th, 2010 when it begins! First up with the WIFF buzz on Ladybrillemag.com is ‘Fire Burn Babylon,’ one of the 60films that will be screened on WIFF’s Irie Carribean Night, a night dedicated to WIFF’s celebration of the works of Carribean filmmakers.
“‘Fire Burn Babylon’ follows the fortunes of a crew of Caribbean Rastafarians who resettle in London after a volcanic eruption devastates their island home. Abandoning lives in spiritual retreat in the foothills of Montserrat, three Rasta men transform their beliefs and reinvent themselves as ‘rude-boy’ rappers and small time hustlers on the East End nightclub circuit. ‘Fire Burn Babylon’ is an inquiry into the transformations of culture and place.”
Sound interesting!
Film Date & Location: UK/Monsterrat, Sat. April 3, 12noon, Lou Rawls Theater at Florida Memorial Univ.
Purchase your ticket and head down to Florida for a good time at the Women’s International Film Festival 2010.
