June 9 – Update

It�s a holiday weekend in Australia and I took the chance to check in and see who�s been interested in the competition.

In order of numbers we�ve had guests from: 1. Slovenia 2. United States 3. Tanzania 4. South Africa 5. Rwanda 6. Uganda 7. New Zealand 8. United Kingdom, 9. Netherlands & 10. Zimbabwe as well as 20 other countries.

There are still several weeks to go before closing date for international films and almost 2 months for Australian entries � plenty of time to come up with a winning idea to highlight the ability of people with disability and showcase your talents to the world.

Good luck and congratulations to those film makers who have already submitted entries � inspirational stuff!
