Liane Balaban announces new film festival

This week in Toronto, Liane Balaban (Supernatural’s Amelia Richardson), Vanessa Matsui, and Jenna Wright announced the kickoff of an online video festival/contest called Crankyfest. It’s open to filmmakers of all stripes and idioms, female and male, the catch being that between now and the submission deadline of March 1 each cineaste has to produce a video no longer than three minutes dealing with menstruation.  Click here for more information.
