2007 Telecom New Zealand International Film Festival Coverage

This weekend marks the end of the Wellington run of the 2007 Telecom New Zealand International Film Festival. Karate Party has had an awesome time covering the fest much like last year the films were diverse and interestng as always. We'd like to thank the festival Trust for allowing our intrepid reviewers access to these films and also to the reviewers themselves for spending a lot of time in front of various screens making these entries possible. The Festival is currently making its rounds around the country so check their site for screening times.
