A SELECTION OF FESTIVAL FILMS FOR THE
OFFORD FILM FESTIVAL 2010
'Pigeon Impossible'
The tale of Walter,
a rookie secret agent faced with a problem seldom covered in basic training:
what to do when a curious pigeon gets trapped inside your multi-million dollar,
government-issued nuclear briefcase. A
hilarious 6-minute romp through the streets of Washington D.C. As our hero
fights to save himself, and the world from the chaos reigned down by a hungry
pigeon. Breathtaking visuals and a
sweeping soundtrack.
Written and directed by Lucas Martell and a team of 100
writers and musicians.

gentleman and his toucan. An homage to
poet Roger McGough.

Howells.

STARS FALLING
A documentary short about the journey of
Nik Fogarty, a local music teacher, who has written a fabulous musical and is
determined to get it put on in the West End.
We hear about the challenges and pitfalls faced being new boy on the
block in the closed circle of the West End and his success so far getting it
onto the Key Theatre in Peterborough (in
June 2010).
Directed by Tobias Zaldua
BEAUTIFUL SENTENCE

documentary it features strong language and some recounting of past experiences
which may be disturbing. Directed by

patrolled by a menacing and vindictive gamekeeper. Will they survive to tell the tale? A beautifully shot film, showcasing the

effects to get you running from the building.
