Board Shorts Selects a Winner

The 2009 Cornwall Film Festival got off to a great start with the Board Shorts event at UCF Tremough on Saturday, November 7th.

A happier crowd of surf fans could not be found in the land. Great films, good music, fantastic prizes and a wonderful chilled atmosphere made this a night to remember.

There were also eight excellent short films for the audience to judge.  And the winner was...

Ollie Banks with his documentary Board and Rider about a craftsman's hand-construction of surf boards.

 

Board Shorts organiser Christiaan Bailey said "Ollie has not only won the title for the best film of Board Shorts 2009, but will receive a voucher for a jacket from the amazing, environmentally motivated, St Agnes based, technical apparel company; Finisterre."
