Awat* adi _ ck m8hed 20 selly raby kane 1 OUR FUNDERS INTRODUCTION For more than 20 years we have celebrated the creativity, politics and joy film brings. We have witnessed with pride the growth of the indigenous filmmaking sector; hosted exciting ‘movie star’ guests; showcased brilliant international filmmaking talent; and shared thousands of diverse stories and cultures with you, our audience. Over the coming decade we will do it all again, re-energised and excited by the wealth of talent and love of film that surrounds us. Michele Devlin. Festival Director From Belfast to the World When I grew up in Belfast, there was no film festival. I was passionate about movies, and visually hungry, but there was no annual event to feed my hunger. I went searching elsewhere, and have ended up working with some of the greatest ACCOMMODATION OFFICIAL MEDIA people in cinema – Tilda Swinton, Jane Fonda, Sean Connery, etc. – but I think back to the 70s and 80s and imagine what more we could have achieved as movie PARTNER PARTNERS lovers and makers if we’d had a film festival. Thankfully we’ve seen brilliant changes in our society since then. Peace has returned, new populations have moved to our city, and we now have world class film studios and programme makers. The quality of our lives has improved and our horizons have opened. Film is the great horizon-opener. Since its birth 20 years ago, the Belfast Film VENUE Festival has had a centrifugal imagination.

At the age of 25, Julio is a seven-year pro. The WBC middleweight world champion, he is the oldest son and namesake of the legendary “El Grande Campeon Mexicano” - former four-time world champion Julio Cesar Chavez, who was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame on June 12, 2011. Julio Jr. won the WBC title with a 12 round unanimous against previously undefeated defending champion Sebastian Zbik in his last fight on June 4. After the fight, Dan Rafael wrote on ESPN.com [excerpts]: Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., the greatest and most popular fighter in Mexican history, will be inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. But before making his way to Canastota, N.Y., to participate in that piece of history, he was ringside at Staples Center for another piece of family history. His oldest son, 25-year-old Chavez Jr., won a world title in the same city where Chavez Sr. had won his first championship and in the same building where he won his 107th and final professional fight in 2005 (headlining a card his son also fought on).
