Twinning with the Sochi International Film Festival & Awards
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]At Ramsgate IFTVFest 2019 a new partnership was born with the twinning with Sochi International Film Festival & Awards. SIFFA Founder and President was our special guest at the Discussion Panel ‘Women in the Film and TV Industry – The Glass Ceiling’. This new collaboration will give Ramsgate IFTVFest the opportunity to expand its already international reach far beyond the screening of films and events in Thanet, UK. It will open up more opportunities to promote not only the gorgeous the only Royal Harbour town in the UK, but also support independent filmmakers by exchanging the best films. We will also be able to celebrate Russian new cinema as well as explore its plethore of classic art work. Looking forward to developing our links with SIFFA.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] -
£220 raised for Flying Fur Animal Rescue at Ramsgate IFTVFest 2019!
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]£220 were raised on Saturday 15 June thanks to the K9 photocall and the generosity of the Ramsgate IFTVFest attendees. Local residents came with their pooches and made a donation to get a picture of their dogs on the red carpet. The money was given to the charity Flying Fur Animal Rescue, doing an amazing job to save dogs and cats from killer shelters and euthanization, thanks to its dedicated pilot Paul Steklenski. A film, Flying Fur was made about the amazing man and his plane by filmmakers Alicia Wszelaki and Matthew Nothelfer. It was screened at Ramsgate IFTVFest 2019 to a moved audience, prompting even more donations.
You can contact Path88 Productions if you’d like a screening of Flying Fur in your town. And you can also donate to the Flying Fur Animal Rescue Charity.
