YONI BENTOVIM AND EMILY HARRIS'S FIRST FEATURE PREMIERES AT RAINDANCE

Yoni Ben Tovim and Emily Harris's first feature "BORGES AND I" is premiering at the Raindance Film Festival this year, on 4th October at 18.30 at the Apollo Cinema in Piccadilly Circus and as this date is sold out Raindance have scheduled an additional screening on Tuesday, 6th October at 1.45pm, Apollo Cinema West End and tickets are on sale for this screening from today.

Raindance review:
Tim is an out-of-work actor, paying the bills with a surveillance job for an insurance company and investigating false claimants. In an attempt to decipher the reasons for his failing acting career, he begins secretly filming his life and conversations in an experiment to see if he can control what other people think of him through analyzing the footage and he becomes addicted to the sensation of filming others without their knowledge.But in the build up to a major audition that could kick-start his career, Tim begins alienating the people around him, and before long he is faced with a major dilemma – either continue being a spectator of his own life, or start being an active participant in it.Shot entirely with a concealed buttonhole camera, Borges & I successfully blurs the borders of reality, making it difficult to distinguish between what’s real and what isn’t. Tim may be providing an insightful look into his slightly deranged mind, or could be an elaborate character designed to make the audience feel uncomfortable as he follows his idea through.It’s a truly original concept that will leave you second-guessing your way to the end, taking you on an intriguing and genuinely unique journey. Chris Presswell (Raindance Film Festival)
