...it's been exactly one week since I returned from the #RAI festival, and I'm still feeling a bit of nostalgia that this superb #VisualAnthropology event is over.

... it's been an immense pleasure that my #EthnographicFilm a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ with Romani musicians #HopaLide was part of the 2025 edition!

... if you missed the event, you can still catch up easily! The online edition is on until 16/07/2025 => https://festival.raifilm.org.uk/library.html

80 fantastic films for £50 (£25 for underwages) seems like a great deal, no?

Already packing for #RAI, checking this year's incredible selection of #Ethnomusicology Film Competition =>

https://raifilm.org.uk/festivals/2025/#ethnomusicology-film-competition

#HopaLide will be screened this Thursday in the Watershed Cinema (09:40 am).

If there are any #Bristol -based #VisualAnthropology fans (or indeed wanderers from elsewhere), let me know, I have two guest tickets available.

Can't wait already!

So it's now official: my latest ethnographic film #HopaLide has been selected for the #RAI FILM Festival in Bristol. What pleasure to be part of this traditional #VisualAnthropology event!

You can either attend the screening on the 12th of June in the Watershed Cinema (starting at 09:40 in the morning – I'll be there!) or watch the film between the 16th of June and – 16th of July online (in the company of over 90 ethnographic films from 36 countries!)

... as soon as the seminar was over, we moved to a #HopaLide screening in the Edison FilmHub.

Well, again I doubted whether an #EthnographicFilm screening on Friday night may compete with Prague's nightlife.

... but guess what – we were sold out!

... and here's also a little photographic follow-up from the latest #HopaLide screening @ Academy of Romani Studies in Prague.

I enjoyed the discussion very much, and I was especially grateful for the feedback from my Romani colleagues...

November with #HopaLide continues; there are more screenings coming – one in #Cagliari (#Sardinia, #Italy) and #Prague (#Czechia). Just scroll-up this thread for details...
