Bath Film Festival 2008

Hotel Very Welcome + Flighty + Milan

Sonja Heiss' first feature is a funny and brilliant docu-style portrayal of five Westerners travelling across the welltrodden paths of Asia. The chaotic Liam has gone AWOL in Goa to escape impending fatherhood back in Ireland; two other Brits - Josh and Adam - are chancing it and falling out in Thailand; German yoga-retreatist Marion reflects on life and relationships while Svenja attempts to escape her Bangkok hotel room. ‘Sonja Heiss shows real promise for lightly comic, observational filmmaking.' - Derek Elley, Variety.

Showing with: Flighty Leigh Hodgkinson, 2007, 1m. Finding ‘the one' isn't easy: just ask the butterflies in this clever animation. Milan Michaela Kezele, Serbia/Germany, 2007, 8'. In the midst of the 1999 NATO air raids in Yugoslavia, two brothers make plans to play hide and seek in the forest.
