What a lovely week in Sheffield. All the reviews of the festival of films I watched are on here now. I may post more as I watch them.
The best of the event was Richard Pryor: Omit the Logic (2013) - Marina Zenovich.
It was closely followed by the most emotion rearing piece Blackfish (2013) Gabriela Cowperthwaite.
All of the others were good as well. There was not one bad film shown at the festival, and hopefully by the time the next one comes around, I will have submitted my own film.

Blackfish (2013) - Gabriela Cowperthwaite
Another brilliant documentary. This is possibly the only one from Sheffield Documentary Festival that would make me change the way I think and act. It's strong message was reinforced with some brilliant archive footage, which really demonstrated everything that the interviewees were saying. However, its only downfall was as a result of Sea World refusing to comment or allow current employees to be interviewed. This documentary was truly worth a masterpiece rating.

PS I have a fear of fish and deep sea creatures, so the clips from Orca (1977) - Michael Anderson made me jump a little, and my friend laughed.
