<\/iframe><\/p>\nUnfortunately, I could not be in Dallas for the TAFF Gala Night so I had to record my acceptance speech for “best emerging filmaker” award. I want to thank the great staff behind this vibrant and unique festival, one of a kind, in particular to the “deus ex machina” Kelechi Eke. \nPurtroppo non ho potuto partecipare alla serata di gala del TAFF, The African Film Festival 2016, a Dallas, Texas, per questo motivo ho dovuto registrare il mio discorso di ringraziamento per l’award come miglior filmaker emergente. GRAZIE alla straordinaria organizzazione di questo vivo e dinamico festival, in particolare alla sua anima e deus ex machina Kelechi Eke.<\/p>\nEcco la griglia dei finalisti e dei premiati – Here it is the short lists with the awarded ones:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4553\" src=\"https:\/\/nicopiro.files.wordpress.com\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o.png\" alt=\"13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o\" width=\"789\" height=\"1235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nicopiro.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o.png 789w, https:\/\/nicopiro.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o-192x300.png 192w, https:\/\/nicopiro.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o-654x1024.png 654w, https:\/\/nicopiro.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o-768x1202.png 768w, https:\/\/nicopiro.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/13603814_568197133353237_7243317456297928325_o-696x1089.png 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 789px) 100vw, 789px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Unfortunately, I could not be in Dallas for the TAFF Gala Night so I had to record my acceptance speech for “best emerging filmaker” award.
