Catching up on STF: Horses, Family Affair, The Kids Grow Up

  • by Raphaela Neihausen, April 22, 2010

image With a new festival (www.DOCNYC.net) and a new baby (pictured on left), we’ve fallen a bit behind with our usually prompt blogging! Better late than never, here’s a quick recap of the last two weeks at STF.

Last week was a double header of Liz Mermin’s HORSES and Chico Colvard’s FAMILY AFFAIR.  This week we had family night of a different sort with Doug Block’s THE KIDS GROW UP.  Below are photos from all three evenings.

Comments

I enjoyed watching “The Kids Grow Up” and attending drinks afterwards (I usually have to head home!).  FYI, the nurse in the photo is also documentary filmmaker Claire Panke.
