With the sun shining down over Cheltenham race course (and one dramatic thunderstorm!!), CFF's festival debut took place the weekend of the 4th, 5th and 6th June at the Wychwood Festival, a predominately family event which attracted old favourites such as the Happy Mondays, local bands, aspiring comedians and the famous Pimms bus! CFF were asked to run the cinema tent over the weekend which screened family favourites such as Finding Neverland to the modern day cult, Life Aquatic. The cinema also screened a series of UK Film Council's short films.
The weekend was a huge success with the climax taking place on Saturday night when a local band, "The Travelling Band" gave a musical accompaniment to the classic film "The Devil Bat." This "musical experiment" attracted a large eclectic audience who responded positively to the performance. Martin and Adam filmed the evening with a view to producing a music video for the band. Watch this space!
The weekend was a great learning experience for Martin and Adam and gave the people of Cheltenham a little taste of what is come in October at the main event.....!
