Big Crowd, Amazing Screening at the Japan-Pacific IBC Theatre at USP in Suva!
We had a truly amazing screening of Fiji Memory, Colonial Time at the beautiful Japan-Pacific IBC Theatre on the University of the South Pacific Laucala Campus in Suva. Thank you so much to USP, the School of Law and Social Sciences, and especially to Sandra Tarte and Nic Halter, who did so much to make this event a success. And thank you to the theatre staff for your hard work, and to Film Fiji for promoting the screening and arranging media coverage. Finally, it was particularly wonderful to have in the audience some of the film subjects and/or their family in attendance. Special shout out to the great representation from the people of Suvavou village!
Great Screening at the Alliance Française!
On July 22nd, the Alliance Française de Suva graciously hosted a preview screening of the film. Thank you to Yann Carpentier, director of the Alliance Française, Lana Smith and Jennifer Sanehi at Film Fiji, and Ben Wheeler for all your help in making this even a success! Photo by Dilyara Galimova.

Private Screening for cast and crew, family and friends!
On November 10th at the Roxie Theater, we were thrilled to do a private premiere screening of Fiji Memory, Colonial Time at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco!
The event featured cast and crew and film subject Jean Bish signed copies of her novel Bells and Shadows, excerpts of which are featured in the film. Thank you to everyone who came out! It was wonderful to show the film on the big screen with a large audience!
For those of you who haven’t seen the film, we are finalizing the last touches of post-production and beginning to apply to festivals and arrange special screenings. Stay tuned for the public premiere!
