While popping into the local cinema I discovered today was the last day of the three-day Tunis International Film Festival,in fact this was the 4th year of the festival but the promotion in La Marsa seems to have been non existant,unless you listen to Radio Tunis.It's a pity as there had been films I would have liked to have seen:for instance "The Hurt Locker" by the Oscar winning director Kathryn Bigelow(the strange thing is that the Radio Tunis presenter at the cinema didn't know who she was!)I ended up seeing four films and the best one was the Australian production "The Waiting City" set in the Indian city Calcutta.After the film there was a question and answer session in which the director mentioned that she'd lived in Calcutta and this inspired her to set the story there.The Waiting City - Official Trailer from The Waiting City on Vimeo.
