Kim Longinotto is a highly acclaimed, multi award-winning British documentarian. Her latest film Pink Saris celebrates an exceptional group of women fighting repression in India.
I'm attending this year's festival... with a new film, Pink Saris.
You should see my film if... you can. You won't be bored.
The best thing about film festivals is... getting to see lots of films that aren't usually around.
The worst thing about film festivals is... feeling overwhelmed by the amount of choice.
Film festivals matter in this day and age... because film is a window looking out on to the world around us.
The first thing that springs to mind when I think of London... Hampstead heath. I don't know why, I hardly ever go there.
If I could sit next to anyone during a festival screening it would be... Renu Devi Paswan.
The last film I saw was... Fish Tank (I saw it last night)
and it was... fabulous.
The filmmakers I'm most inspired by... Lukas Moodysson (particularly his early film Show Me Love), Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck (The Lives of Others), Shane Meadows, Stephen Frears (for My Beautiful Laundrette), the makers of Mad Men and The Sopranos - I could go on & on! I'll probably think of loads of others after this.
If I wasn't visiting the festival I'd be spending my time... seeing friends.
