Paris MA Film student celebrates documentary premiere

Congratulations to former MA Film student at the University of Kent Paris School of Arts and Culture Ece Ger who has recently celebrated the world premiere of her documentary, Meeting Jim, at the Edinburgh International Film Festival.

Meeting Jim is a feature length documentary about Jim Haynes, an extraordinary 83-year-old man and his legendary Sunday dinners in Paris that are free and open to the public.

It takes you on a journey back to his lifetime, a man who grabbed with heart and soul the spirit of the 60s and continued to carry it throughout his life. This journey becomes also a physical one when he takes a train from the city of Paris, where he lives, to London and Edinburgh, the cities where he left his unique mark. A journey that will not only bring out his past and memories, but also his carefully preserved collection of human interconnections.
