Part Five: Photo Gallery #2 – NIFFF (55 images)
Tribute to Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF)
The previous set of photography in this tribute focused on the town of Neuchatel where the Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF) takes place. Up today we have a 55 image set that focuses on NIFFF itself (click the image above to view).
55 photographs of NIFFF might sound like a lot but it seems like even 100-200 would be too few to fully capture the diversity of events and overall experience. Here is a small taste of the life as a film fest goer at NIFFF.

About Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF) Month:
All month long in March 2009, Cinema is Dope will be profiling and paying tribute to the Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF) that takes place annually in Switzerland. Most coverage will feature their 8th edition which took place in 2008.
Please note that their 2009 dates are June 30th-July 5th.
It was the summer of 2008 and I found myself for the first time in Neuchatel, Switzerland, to take part in one of the worlds most blissful film festivals. What adjectives you say and yes they many and all do apply sincerely. To a certain degree you could call this a small genre fest and you in a way would be right but still so damn wrong at the same time. There is something so intoxicating and refreshing going on here each year at the Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival (NIFFF) that regardless of size it feels infinitely grand and magical. Every screening is filled with energetic but respectful audiences and with its newly added outdoor screenings where you can gush over Wong Kar Wai’s Ashes of Time Redux set against the backdrop of the Swiss Alps, there are few things in life that can compare, let alone film going experiences. Many people put Venice, TIFFF, Cannes and more on their dial as must fests to attend and I’m sure those are great and all, but seriously you have not lived until you have stepped foot here. Recommended for film lovers of all kinds, treat yourself right someday. Please follow along in March of 2009 as I profile this film festival.
