IDFB 2012 Supplement in The Independent

The Independent, IDFB 2012 Media Partner, have created a special supplement dedicated to this year’s festival, and you can pick up your copy with the Saturday 31 March edition of the newspaper.

The 8 page pull-out is full of previews, articles and exclusive interviews, and also features an exciting announcement about a special addition to the cast of Wings of Desire, our outdoor spectacular that will take over Victoria Square between 16 and 19 May.

If you can’t get your hands on a copy of the The Independent tomorrow, you can visit the IDFB section of their website, and keep your eyes peeled during the festival, as we’ll be distributing copies throughout IDFB.

Also, remember to enter their competition to win a pair of tickets to see PUSH at Birmingham Hippodrome in IDFB 2012!

We are delighted to announce details of a new opportunity to deliver the film production and editing requirements for our 2012 festival.
