:: 1,200 pounds ::

The Ninth Edition of the Hawaii International Film Festival's Spring Showcase came to a close Thursday night.

The screens are dark at Houses 9 and 10 of the Dole Cannery, the staff rested and we need merely ship 1,200 pounds of film to festivals around the globe. LINDA LINDA LINDA travels to Argentina, LADY VENGEANCE to Hungary, PARINEETA to exotic Encino and 20 CENTIMETERS to Philadelphia. And so it goes.

Save the date for K-FEST II! Exact date is TBD, but look for a late August bow for the sophomore edition of our weekend mini-fest of Korean cinema.
