Death in Charge is seriously getting around. It’s now screened at 76 festivals, garnered 15 awards and numerous nominations and it continues to travel the world. While I was off with it in Alaska, it was also screening at Cambofest in Cambodia – here are some stills – how cool is that? Go, Death! Congrats to the entire team!
Travel with the trippin’ cast and crew as they visit film festivals all over the world, make new friends and watch great movies.
Death in Cambodia – Sweet!

I got back from Alaska yesterday and actually found L.A. a bit nippy – how weird is that? I don’t know if this is common, but I always feel a little sad after a particularly great fest experience.

I’m feeling a bit delirious (perhaps it’s due in part to the bijillion layers of clothes that make me resemble the Michelin Man – how funny is that image left?). At least it’s a good delirium. The fest continues to delight with cinema, spirits and sobremesa ’til all hours and after Tuesday’s after-party I came home to discover that TRIPPIN’s already been accepted to its first fest – yay!
