Heard on Thursday deep in the p.m. that Folie has been accepted by the Mannheim Co-Production Meetings, a prestigious affair that takes place during the Mannheim-Heidelberg Film Festival in November.

It's a major step in the right direction, and it's also a great festival. Unlike Cannes, everyone gets an invite to all the parties, half the festival happens in the beautiful town of Heidelberg (which also has a bloody good record shop - record as in vinyl), plus there is also a great cocktail bar which hovers like a lighthouse over the Stadhaus, Stars, whose site is here: http://www.turmcafe-stars.de/
I can recommend a Fred Astaire, to be taken each day just as the lights come on. Impossible not to marvel at the beauty of the world - even the industrial bits that you can see from the bar - at a time like that.
