The Mexican Caribbean's stunning Banco Chinchorro, home to the world's second largest coral reef, provides the setting and inspiration for this effortlessly beautiful story of a Mayan father and son as they spend a summer working (and playing) along the coast.

"Micmacs," another bizarre movie from the director of "Delicatessen" and "Amélie," will open the 53rd San Francisco International Film Festival, which runs April 22-May 6.
Jean-Pierre Jeunet's film, about a man with a bullet in his skull who lost his father in a land mine explosion and seeks revenge against weapons manufacturers, is actually a rather whimsical film.
"It's great fun as a movie, but it's also by a director who uses all the tools of cinematic craft," said Rachel Rosen, San Francisco Film Society director of programming. "It's good old-fashioned entertainment - it's basically a caper film."
The festival closes with a documentary, "Joan Rivers - A Piece of Work," and mayhem is promised at the Castro Theatre when Rivers herself makes an appearance.
Does the festival have a plan to manage the flamboyant comedian to keep things from getting out of hand?
"No," Rosen said. "I am just going to do whatever she says."

Werner Herzog to head Berlin Film Festival jury
BERLIN — Oscar-nominated German director Werner Herzog will lead the international jury at the 60th Berlin Film Festival from February 11-21, organisers said on Thursday.
The critically acclaimed Herzog, 67, will head the panel that chooses the winners of the festival's coveted Golden and Silver Bear prizes which will be awarded on February 20.
"Werner Herzog's films convey the artistic strength of cinema. We are very pleased to have this outstanding director as Jury President for the 60th anniversary of the festival," festival head Dieter Kosslick said in a statement.
Over a career spanning almost 50 years, Herzog has made more than 50 films. In 2009, Time magazine listed him as one of its top 100 most influential people in the world. The only other German on the list was Chancellor Angela Merkel.
He won an Oscar nomination for best documentary feature for his 2007 film "Encounters at the End of the World" and has a glittering array of awards from film festivals around the globe.
The Berlin film festival, known as the Berlinale, ranks below Cannes and alongside Venice among the world's top film festivals.
A debate over the festival effect
Though buzz at fests can raise a film's profile, some say it's not a sure-fire predictor of Oscar gold.

When "Slumdog Millionaire" premiered at the 2008 Telluride Film Festival, audiences cheered for the uplifting story about a kid from the Mumbai slums who wins big on a game show. After it went on to take home the coveted Audience Prize at the Toronto International Film Festival, the film's award season performance went on to mirror that of its winning main character.
Ultimately, "Slumdog" took home eight Oscar statuettes, including the one for best picture, which, for many people, further solidified the film festival's Oscar-auguring powers. But veterans of the circuit say that, while the attention movies and talent receive at film festivals is important, the "Slumdog" bullet train was an anomaly: Festivals represent just one cog in the overall award season machine.

[NEWS] Johnnie To: It took years to find artistic balance
(10-09) 06:28 PDT BUSAN, South Korea (AP) --
Johnnie To says it took him years to find the right balance between art and commerce, as the Hong Kong director known for his stylish gangster thrillers reviewed his 30-plus year career at one of Asia's top film festivals.
Speaking at the 14th Pusan International Film Festival in South Korea on Friday, To traced his personal history back to his first job as a 17-year-old messenger at leading Hong Kong broadcaster TVB.
The 54-year-old filmmaker said he became disillusioned with Hong Kong's star-driven system in the early 1990s, and after making a series of commercial films, he decided to carve his own path by founding his now famed production company, Milkyway Image, in 1996 with fellow director Wai Ka-fai.

[NEWS] Korean film in focus at Pusan festival
This year’s event features four retrospectives on local cinema
October 09, 2009

Every year around this time, thousands of people head to the southern port city of Busan, where the smell of the sea riding a crisp autumn breeze mingles with the faint scent of filmstrips at the Pusan International Film Festival.
The festival, now in its 14th year, is set to screen its biggest lineup ever, with 355 films from 70 countries.
Part of the festival’s success can be attributed to the fact that it brings something new every year to cineastes who wait anxiously for the festival’s autumn opening.
“This year’s PIFF will have the largest number of films ever, and we will be graced with the most glamorous guests we have ever had,” PIFF director Kim Dong-ho said.
