Guernsey Lily Festival was for many years one of Britain's most
important international amateur film festivals. At its heart were
Richard and Peter Rouillard with their wives Afifa and Mary. The
festival enjoyed the strong support of Joan Ozanne a key player in
the island's arts scene. Its top prizes were called Guernsey
Lilies. The collection features captions before each film giving its title and the award received. |
