THE MAKING OF THE FILM 'ACCIDENT'
Alfons Hereu Ruax, FACI (Spain)
This is a movie about the making of the 1995 IAC Daily Mail Challenge Trophy-
winner, awarded annually to the Best Amateur Entry. Shot in colour but intercut
with black-and-white sections taken from the final version of Accident, this
is an informative and fascinating look at the process of movie-making, especially
when demonstrated by such winners as Jan Baca and Toni Garriga.
