Hey Kempton,
You do have a packed schedule there but I wish there was a possibility that you could have seen Le Quattro Volte, which is an absolutely breath-taking film. Also, I am glad to see you continue to do these CIFF interviews and post them.
Thanks a lot for this. Very valuable.
thanks Sachin, Le Quattro Volte looks like an interesting film.
