The 2008 World
Festival of Sacred Music is collaborating
with Los Angeles based independent
filmmakers to create ten short
documentary films on artists performing
in the 16 day festival. This year
the festival received over 60 applications
for the film project, creating
a very diverse and talented pool
of filmmakers to choose from. Finalists
will select artists from the festival
that they are interested in collaborating
with to create a 5-7 minute documentary
film. The final ten part festival
series will be 70 minutes in length.
