For weeks tried to load the fest official site and was simply put, impossible. The fest started and still unable to load fest site; the first day when finally the site loaded was when the fest was over and wasn’t until that moment that I was able to read the films that the fest screened. Some films are quite interesting but here are the award winners.Golden Alexander -Best Feature Film: Periferic (Outbound), Bogdan George Apetri, Romania and Austria, 2010

This was a year for Romanian productions which is fantastic as you know how much I like Romanian cinema and think is about time that I deeply immerse into my second favorite cinema as there are many great films that haven’t seen yet.
Surely my IP was blocked from the fest official site as probably couldn’t handle traffic; but I hope that next year the site does not block me or I will be living somewhere else! (lol!)
