Bahamian filmmakers found a prominent place at the Sixth Trinidad and Tobago Film Festival, taking part in film screenings, prominent panel discussions and workshops.
Three filmmakers – Kareem Mortimer, Clarence Rolle, and Maria Govan – participated in the festival, representing the Bahamas and their individual films. Kareem Mortimer, the director of the feature film Children of God, had his latest movie, Windjammers, screened at the festival. Meanwhile, Clarence Rolle’s Crazy Love had two screenings during the two-week festival. Rolle is the writer and director of Crazy Love, a critically-acclaimed romantic comedy that is now airing on Cable Bahamas’ Pay Per View.
Bahamas Film Commissioner Craig Woods said the festival proved to be an experience for growth and development for Bahamian filmmakers.
The Trinidad and Tobago Film Festival ends October 4.
