John talking to Film Fund presenters at AmDocs
With the American Documentary and Animation Film Festival (International) directed by Teddy Grouya, I have the wonderful role of Associate Programmer. I attend Film Festivals in Kosovo (Dokufest), Croatia, and Slovenia. I am a regular at the Venice International Film Festival (Italy) and the San Sebastian International Film Festival (Spain). And lately I have had the pleasure of attending Curtocircuito, a marvelous short films Festival in Santiago de Compostela, Spain.

During the American Documentary and Animation Film Festival in Palm Springs, California, I am a member of the Funding Panel. I have had the opportunity to meet with Oliver Stone, Peter Bogdanovich, Haskell Wexler, Joe Berlinger, Shia LaBeouf, and many other wonderful filmmakers.
