More festivals and changes in dates

Hello everyone!
So, first, the news of the week:
Secretos de lucha is officially selected in the Amiens Film Festival (9-18 November 2007)
and in the Bogota film festival (3-11 October 2007)
The short version (52 min) is screening this week in the Rosario film Festival.

The First public screening of the feature length version is going to take place in Biarritz, September 26th, 4 pm in the auditorium of the Casino, and September 28th, 9 am, same place.

Mexico:
September 29th - 14:00 hrs. - Cinemex Casa de Arte 1
October 2nd- 18:30 hrs. - Cinemex Casa de Arte 1 (in my presence)
October 4th- 21:00 hrs. Cinemex CAsa de Arte 1 (in my presence)
Why in my presence? Because the French Embassy is kind enough to pay for my trip there. I will be very happy to go for the first time in my life to this beautiful country, from September 30th until around October 10th.

Next should be Bogota (I don't have the dates of the screenings yet, and I don't think I will be going there. Unfortunately, if I don't get invited I can't really afford it...)
Brussels Itineraires festival (no dates yet)
Then there will be a screening in my home town, Bayonne, France, October 19th, with Q and A, with my father, my aunt Marcelle and I, in the cinema L'atalante.
October 23rd, special screening in Saint Jean Pied de Port.
Geneva Filmar en America Latina in November, 13th-18th,
Amiens, November 9-18th
Saint Jean de Luz and Saint palais: the screenings are delayed, and will happen now in November, dates to be advised.

This is all for the moment.
Don't hesitate to write to me to ask me questions about the film and help me make this blog more interesting....
See you all next time.

Secretos de Lucha 's Blog

Hello Everybody! This is the first message in the newly created blog to promote, discuss, or even criticise (as long as it is a constructive criticism) the documentary Secretos de Lucha. I am Maiana Bidegain, the director and writer of the film, and I am quite interested in getting feedback from anybody who's seen the film, or who is interested in seeing it, or simply who wants to talk with me or anyone taking part in this blog about themes related to the film: the history of Uruguay, the years of the dictatorship in the seventies, the heavy silence imposed on a generation that now my generation is trying so hard to lift, to let some truth be known. I will also be bringing here the news related to the screenings organised around the world for the film. So first, a quick introduction: Secretos de Lucha is a film about my journey, as a young woman born in France from parents who were political refugees from Uruguay, to discover what really happened to them. What especially forced my

News and comments / Noticias y comentarios

Hello everybody, sorry I have been a bit slack to put the blog up to date but I'll try to keep you inform a bit more frequently from now on. First of all, a balance: Secretos de Lucha has been screened in more than 30 international film festivals around the world, in as many as 15 countries, going from France to Uruguay, through Mexico, Canada, USA, Russia, Serbia, New Zealand, Australia, Bolivia, Colombia, Argentina, etc etc etc. Now, still it is not easy to get to see the film. Why? Because you basicaly can't buy it outside the web. There is the offical website, www.secretosdelucha.com, where you can order and pay for the film online, but otherwise, beside the Elkar shop in Bayonne, France, you can't buy it anywhere, BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE A DISTRIBUTOR. Even in Uruguay, where it would seem natural to get someone interested in selling the film for us, even without any profit from our part, the distributors never got interested enough in selling the movie on DVD.
