The Funeral (scousers talk shite)

[brasidas]

I work for a drugs relapse project in Liverpool and we recently did a short film called The Funeral with our drama group - it's B&W and 28 mins long and the story is basically a group of scousers arguing with eachother in an alehouse after their mate's funeral...and that's about it (no, it's not like that Harry Enfield sketch) - we're thinking of exhibiting it but we dont' want the drugs angle used as an excuse to patronise the actors or the film - it either stands on it's own merits or it doesn't. does nayone know of any festivals that would be worth trying out?

cheers.

Theres an absolute shitload, it would get picked up somewhere, though don't know much about fesivals, but my adivce is keep at it. Even in this country theres loads that could take it, keep sending it everywhere.

Sorry couldnt be more help.

You'll definitely get into the Stafford Film Festival, I think.
