Re: DEADLINE FOR IAC WEBSITE COMPETITION and BIAFF 31 Jan

Dear IAC friends, I'm absolutely delighted that my film Vincent was awarded an IAC Diamond and the awards for best Photography and Sound, I certainly didn't expect this! Vincent is a film that tends to polarize people quite a bit, so that makes this recognition all the more exciting! After the 2009 ...
