PROVIDENCE, RI (September 9, 2005) After weeks of deliberation [1983 entries submitted from all corners of the globe], the Rhode Island International Film Festival (RIIFF) is pleased to announce the winners for this year''s Barren Branches GLBT Screenplay Competition. Many excellent screenplays were submitted covering the spectrum from comedy to drama to contemporary to historical.
Second Prize
Far From Maddy
C.C. Saint-Clair, Australia
In regards to Far From Maddy, I feel that, in the fullness of time, the gritty urban realism that is proper to Jo''s circumstances woven, as it is, through the heart connection she has with Maddy, will bring about a convergence of creative talents that will see this project through.
