Back in 1984 NZ took nine movies to Cannes.

In 2008 the NZ Film Commission was in Cannes representing a number of films, including the recently released Second-Hand Wedding.
We didn’t manage to get a photo of the delegation. But Kim Baker, intrepid rights coordinator for NZ On Screen, was snapped on the red carpet just last weekend …
NZ On Screen’s intrepid travelling “Rights coordinator and industry liaison” person Kim Baker met up with expat kiwi filmmaker Roger Donaldson in Los Angeles last weekend to show him the NZ On Screen site in development and to talk about his work. The meeting went well - stay tuned for more details!
Meanwhile Kim is on her way to Cannes to do some work with the NZ Film Commission - we look forward to more reports!
