Feature events
LIDF09 will be punctuated by notable events that go beyond the constraints of the 30 minute panel or Q&A and explore, over the course of a day, significant issues of the moment. Bringing together filmmakers, politicians, activists, and academics the LIDF develops it’s original promise of ‘conversations in film’; critical dialogue in a public sphere.
