MISTURA, THE POWER OF FOOD - LONDON PREMIERE!!!
For the bargain charity-donating price of £8, you now have the choice of two AWARD-WINNING documentaries to see at Shortwave Cinema (http://www.shortwavefilms.co.uk/) in support of Kiya Survivors (http://www.kiyasurvivors.org/) and as part of the festival.
I am sure you are already very well-acquainted with the first documentary 'De Ollas y Sueños' (and if not, see the trailer in the 7th of September post) so I will move quickly onto announcing the LONDON PREMIERE (yes, PREMIERE) of Patricia Perez's award-winning documentary 'Mistura, the power of food', which we, in collaboration with Discovering Latin America (http://www.discoveringlatinamerica.com/documentaries-event/events/flavours-of-peru.html) are proud to present before your curious eyes on Thursday 20th October 2011 at 19.15-20.00, preceeding 'De Ollas y Sueños' at 20.30-21.45 (NOTE the time change from previous post)
Book your tickets quickly from Shortwave's website:

We have also been tipped off that the well-known Silvio DJ (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Silvio-DJ/159282833157) may be spinning some tunes after the screenings, how spoilt for choice!
As a temptation, here is the synopsis and trailer (the documentary will be screened in Spanish wit English subtitles):
'In Peru, cooking and eating go beyond the kitchen.
The nation's passion for food transcends pots and pans, Peru finds in its cuisine its missing ingredient:
A way to celebrate being Peruvian.
A way to love, show respect and be proud.
Mistura, the gastronomic fair that happens in Lima every September, is the best example.
This project is an attempt to capture a slice of the immense spectrum of experiences that are simmered in Mistura every year. A place where cooks and patrons passionately teach us not only about the food but most importantly about life.'

Ch-ch-ch-changes
In a style less jovial than the David Bowie-esque title would suggest, we do need to inform you of some bad news...
Our very special guest Christine Audat, who was set to perform at the festival, has been taken ill with a horrible virus and cannot come to perform. We are as sad as you are about this and are endeavouring to do everything we can to find a wonderful replacement. Once we have found somebody, we will inform you - we are very sorry but WATCH this space.
