The 12th Foyle Film Festival opens next Friday in Derry with the Irish premiere of Michael Winterbottom's Northern Irish-set romantic drama, With or Without You. Foyle has had an admirable track record of attracting major names into Derry over the years, and that tradition is continued next Saturday with a public question and answer session with Wim Wenders, whose documentary, The Buena Vista Social Club, is currently on a highly successful limited release. Other guests include acclaimed TV scriptwriter Jimmy McGovern, who will hold a writing workshop. For further information contact the Festival Box Office - phone 01504 267432.
