RTFF
The first edition of the Roof Top Film Festival happened last Saturday-Sunday (24th and 25th, March 2007). It had been good fun organizing it along with TUD, Nandhu, Suderman, Suraksha, Jump, Syed, Songi, Sid, Baggy and a lot more people.
We had a good turn out of about 28 people (We were at one point considering closing registrations after we reached 25). A lot of snacks, some good movies and a lot of booze. Everything was set for a ball of a night – movie marathon.
I watched the first two movies Hard Candy and Blood Simple and later slept off thanks to the excess fluids. Annie Hall and That Four Letter Word was played while I was sleeping. The good part is I had already seen the movie, so it wasn’t a big deal. But I certainly missed the discussions after the movie and the director’s cut of TFLW 
More such events are bound to happen in the future. 
Here are a few memorable photographs thanks to Sid and Jump.
