International Film Festival Winners, Naples, Florida

The International Film Festival, Naples, Florida ended with a much appreciated awards ceremony on Sunday evening.  It all started with a red carpet performance of “East Fifth Bliss” starring Michael C. Hall of television’s fame “Dexter”, with about 1,000 attendees.

 

It concluded with the presentation of seven awards given at the Naples Philharmonic Center for the Arts.  A documentary recording the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder on war veterans and their families, “The Welcome”,  was chosen as the Audience Choice winner.  The Best Feature winner was “Hermano”, the story of two brothers from the slums of Venezuela who play soccer, which also won the Moscow International Film Festival.

 

 

Other award-winners include “The Highest Pass” for Best Documentary, “Little Horses” for Best Short, “The Narrow Place” for the Indie Spirit and “Dying To Do Letterman”, relating the story of comedian Steve Mazan (who was in attendance) for the Neapolitan Award…http://ChrisAndDick.com
