A very stimulating event. As someone who wore dungarees in the early 80's and was involved with the setting up the now long gone "York Film" group in 1976 (film-making and screening) it was great to see and hear so much searching, funny and evocative material.

This event was everything I hoped it to be. Great variety, great discussions. I had an interesting discussion with a lady who lived in Germany during 1997, when Bandits came out. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to continue my conversation with her later, but would love to talk some more about it. Please email me: kk525@york.ac.uk

It was a lovely day and I spoke to some interesting people who shared similar concerns. It's a shame that the panel discussions weren't for longer though, especially the first panel where a lot of important issues were raised. I enjoyed the short films that were screened, but felt a little tortured by the feature film!
