Tahun ni opening kat the newly open cultural village.. impressive build up tp setahu aku sejak aku dtg sini, tempat ni dibina for no reason... finally setelah 4 tahun br siap and set for DTFF... akhirnya... as the village is apparently out of nowhere, jauh skit dr town and takde proper parking. depa set parking kat convention center and prepare shuttle bus... and i can say, tranportation dia excellent... above expectation.sesampai je kitaorg, sbb tmpt tu luas jugak, agak clueless where to go... so ikut2 org lah... and we ended up at the red carpet... felt the glimpse of jadi fan of celebrity sbb kebetulan salma hayek (i think the only real international celebrity malam tu) tgh lalu kat red carpet.. nampak lah dia dr jauh... wifey kata baju dia horrendously ugly... i said she was quite petite and pretty... hehehe... this is the best picture we got...
then kitaorg pun menuju ke area where they show the opening show. it's advertise as free seating theatre... agak jauh gak lah... and the area tu mmg lawa lah... and we were very impressive with the design etc... sesampai je kat pintu masuk, tak de pun ramai sgt org beratur nak masuk, so we thought that it will be a smooth process and very well controlled crowd... once sampai depa suruh ambik free passes on the small table dkt2 situ... which at that time, kata minah jaga table tu plak dah abis... bengong!!!
ramai actually confused with the system... dia kata free viewing tp tak plak dia advertise to get the passes and only limited to 2000 viewers... bengong!!! penat lah zaireen dress up (sorry yup u remind me to check earlier kena ada passes ke tak... too confident konon sistem bagus, we do not need one... but too bad, tak dpt masuk) actually we were slight early, sbb lepas kitaorg dpt tahu tak dpt masuk, mula lah ada ramai org gaduh2 kat gate tu, sbb tak dpt masuk. ada yg dah siap baju evening dress with tux lah, still tak dpt masuk... so we make a move balik lah.. :-( frustrated!!! seriously frustrated. totally understand the procedure, but please bg tahu lah kat website korang yg the seating is limited to 2000 je... last year buat open area blh je ribu2 org datang. u are in the 2nd year please expect lagi ramai dtg ok! next year buat lagi baik ok!
but that's not all lah... i mean, on the final day wifey and i g tgk salah satu movie dlm festival. its a bosnian film. mula2 nya byk gile film kitaorg nak tgk... tp fikir2, nanti lg byk plak film kitaorg tgk mengalahkan jury festival plak... heheeh... and since zaireen dah beli terlebih tiket, kitaorg cuma beli tiket zaireen tu je... it was a good movie (for me...) its a life story about current bosnian culture...interesting enough... sblm movie start the organiser cakap the film maker akan tunggu sampai abis film utk Q&A session... the main actor was there jugak, tp tak leh nak jawab soalan sbb flight malam tu... tp kitaorg tak tunggu because that was on saturday midnight, ahad aku nak keje... better ciao right after the movie....
good experience joining the festival.. tahun dpn nak try dpt vip passes g masuk opening :-)...
