Other screenings include: UFO 0110 in New Delhi (Indian Premiere), Regard sur le court-metrage au Saguenay, Québec (Canadian Premiere), Watersprite Film Festival at Cambridge University, Post Alley Film Festival in Seattle and Taos Shorts Fest in New Mexico. Stanley Pickle continues to screen on Virgin Atlantic flights as part of the Virgin Atlantic Film Festival in the sky, we’ve had a few images from people watching from the clouds- it’s very cool to know that our film is still making people smile- worldwide!

ECU Paris takes place at the end of March 2012.
