Earlier in the year I submitted both Fragile and Harvest to the Phantasmagoria Film Festival in Swindon, and I managed to catch up with festival director Justin Richards at Dead By Dawn for a quick chat.
Even in a bleary-eyed state in the Filmhouse in Edinburgh, Justin remembered my films and said that at least one was likely to be screened. I received an email a short time ago from Justin confirming that too, and yesterday I had the confirmation that Fragile is to open the festival on Saturday 12th July ahead of British feature Room 36.
I have to say that I was a little surprised that Fragile was chosen over Harvest, but it does reaffirm your faith that every film you make will find its niche somehow. It also reminds that there is seemingly no logic or reason to if and when films are selected. Fragile was the first Spectral production and has only screened once before in the UK, despite a fair few festival submissions. Nature will always find a way I suppose.
I will be heading along to the screening so expect a report soon...
