2008 BRIGHTON INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES THE WORLD PRIMEIR OF
“AUSTIN’S MOVIE”.

The 2008 Brighton International Film Festival will be held on June 26th from 7:00pm to 9:00pm at the Art Gallery of Windsor. The Feature of the Brighton International Film Fest will be a film titled “Austin’s Movie” from Award Winning Director Tim Nagae.

“Austin’s Movie” highlights how Austin Smith, an 8 year old boy from Brighton, Michigan made the Brighton Biennial sculpture exhibit his passion. Every day on his way to school, Austin would have his parents drive him by the artwork so he could make sure they were all in place. Austin was aware of the community’s initial response to the Brighton Biennial Sculpture Exhibit and he couldn’t understand the controversy. According to Austin’s Mother, Faith Smith, the Brighton Biennial Sculpture Exhibit served as an impetus for a communication breakthrough with Austin. With over a year and a half in the making, Tim Nagae captures the positive effects public art can have on the community.

2008 Brighton International Film Festival. Will be held on June 26th from 7:00pm to 9:00pm at the Art Gallery of Windsor.
