Sounds Like Teen Spirit – TIFF’08
I’m not in Toronto but if I was I would go see Sounds Like Teen Spirit tonight. My friend Jamie Jay Johnson made it and he is just as great as his name suggests (he once made a brilliant film about going on holiday in his bedroom)! I haven’t seen Sounds Like Teen Spirit yet but it’s about Junior Eurovision, a spin-off of the Eurovision Song Contest which was a hilariously camp yearly treat for me back in the UK (ah Terry Wogan, how I miss you!). If you’re in Toronto please go see it for me.

I was there for the big Toronto premiere and the whole audience *loved* it! They really captured the spirit of these kids and some of the nail biting anxiety of the competition.
Jamie was adorable and blushed modestly at the rave reviews. Please pass on to his mum that he *did* remember to thank the audience.

Not yet! It has only just premiered at Toronto. Not sure what the distribution plans are for it.
