von Christine Rush

: Sawasdee ka! Greetings from the Bangkok Film Market! Now in our third year as an integral part of the Bangkok International Film Festival, (February 17-27, 2006) the Bangkok Film Market has proved to be a major success for buyers, sellers and industry professionals looking for new projects, new films, new partners and new shooting locations. Representatives from 50 countries attended last year. The legendary Lew Horwitz, founder of the Lewis Horwitz Organization (LHO) and inventor of gap financing comes aboard as the Honorary Chairman of BFM in 2006. He is organizing an amazing schedule of seminars and workshops with topics such as game development, digital production, internet, scriptwriting and of course, independent film financing. The 5-day Bangkok Film Market will open on February 20th, 2006 at the new Siam Paragon Center (www.siamparagon.co.th <http://www.siamparagon.co.th/> ) We hope you will put us on your calendar for 2006.
