UNICA 2008 (Tunisia) - UK PROGRAMME       (Library ref no. 106)

Each year IAC chooses a programme of films to represent the United Kingdom's non-professional film makers at the UNICA world film festival. This is our selection for 2008.
1.
Still from the 'Intro'.INTRO
by Brian Dunckley

The humorous introduction for the British programme has long been a popular item at UNICA and does a lot to pave the way for light-hearted films in the programme. For several years these have been created by Brian Dunckley. This is one of a series with a James Bond theme.



2. Still from 'Heatwave'. HEATWAVE
Alan Atkinson (Great Britain)

Once again our own Chairman, Alan Atkinson brings his hero Walter Ruddles to the screen to save the world. This time the threat is from a unique form of global warming, manipulated by a power crazed one-eyed villain. Half the fun is in recognising the Hollywood heroes that are spoofed so effectively in this special effects comedy.
