Featuring the best international cinema from across the world, including Portugal, China and Russia, and bringing in many noted filmmakers to speak, including Carlos Suares (Post Tenebre Lux) and Miguel Gomes (Tabu), Black Movie Festival in Geneva promises to keep the focus on cinema, and only cinema, from January 18 - 27. I'll be there starting in the middle of next week posting dispatches and reviews, in between building snowmen, of course. Stay tuned!
