My life is often a hotchpotch, and today
I have been (momentarily) sidetracked.
This morning I got a
mail from a Chinese esperantist friend, a journalist working for
China Radio International. She wanted to tell me about a film
competition which she is organizing with friends, colleagues and
non-Esperanto associates.
Does anybody fancy a free five-day trip
to Beijing?
Do you enjoy making short films?
What comes into your mind when you hear
the words 'Tea and Love' ?
The images and emotions conjured up by
this phrase, tea and love, could be the first steps towards winning the first prize
in an international short film competition.
Apart from fame, what can you win?
I have already told you: amongst other things a free five-day
trip to Beijing!
Who is hosting the competition?
Tea + Love. Short film competition.
Entries with soundtracks in any language
are welcome, but the subtitles have to be in Esperanto; this is NOT
an obstacle, because you do not even have to know Esperanto.
When you have finished the film, get in
touch with your local Esperanto organization and they will find
somebody willing to translate the soundtrack for you.
If you are seriously interested in the
competition, please get in touch with me and I will send you further
information (Esperanto) and once again please get in touch with local
esperantists and they will be very pleased to help you.
How do I know they will help you?
Because from personal experience I know they are very, very helpful.
If I started telling you about that, I would be sidetracked far too
long.
