2010 BELLADONNA comes of age!

Seasons Greetings from Marcus and I at the BELLADONNA land!
2009 WOW what a year, and her we go 2010!

Firstly thank you so much for supporting us, it has been very special and it means alot to us, and here we are, the first entry of 2010. So lets begin!
Some of you may have read some doom and gloom stories about the film industry and I guess the world, and yes things are somewhat crumbling as the 'old set up patterns' become unstable yet as things crumble new things grow. So here we have been growing BELLADONNA
(not literally the plant, although that is a great idea) but rather the lightness of vision and the independent ways of achievement and success! it may take longer but we are in it for the long run.SO many wonderful opportunities have come our way, and few tricky decisions along the way (which some industry people would have questioned) usually about the interface between the 'old and the new' I see the picture of the dinosaurs dying out, while the little creature are moving with ease... creating new worlds, independently with other little creatures!! 2009 saw the completion of our festival circuit at the INDIAN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL in Goa which was just amazing (some photos below)
So what now? well now we are preparing for the release here in AUSTRALIA and the US with the assistant of our US Sales Agent.

Here are just a few of the places we have been this year

The warmest of wishes the coolest of people. May your year be filled with splendour!
