Dear feature family,

the longest day is almost over - longest because it is the last day of the conference. It started with my program "The Scent of a Kitchen" so I'm lucky to be suggested to write the report.

Just a joke: I will not praise the program, just tell you what it is about - it is actually about the impossibility to catch the shape, the materialization of a memory and we could hear the real cooking session with an old lady during Christmas in Croatia.

Following was the personal story from YLE Finland about the boy in circuss told by an old man, so it was another memory program. This brings us to the listenin order of the program at the IFC Toronto done by Lorelei Harris from Ireland. Bravo Lorelei!

After disscusion and lunch we came back for some more listening : first 365 Days of Mourning, a Polish program on the problem of disasters in mines which are taking many human lives, a strong program with investigative journalistic approach and a microphone being there in the ambience, in the miner's reality.

Then we herd another Ake Bloomstrom winner - Carmen Petcu from Romania and her program Freedom is Inside Us, about a prisoner who is going out of jail after being there for fourteen years, but he felt more free in the joint then outside.

The day was closed with the ABC Australia program "Ambush" about the ambush slaughtering people during The World War Two on the Pacific islands.

The special and promissing event closed the morning part of the day. It was the presentation of EBU Masterschool course for young featuremakers and four (out of twelve) young feature makers presented excerpts of their programs that they did during the course.

They were all fresh, dynamic, exteremly interesting and inspired an enthusiastic applause from the IFC audience. They have shown the face of the future and made us all to look optimistically towards it.
