In regard to your story about the Malibu Film Festival no longer taking place in Malibu, would you please clarify to your readers that this is a totally separate festival from the Malibu Celebration of Film which premiered in 2006 with our tribute to Robert Altman.
The Malibu Celebration of Film features the “best of the best,” festival winners from around the world and includes “FilmsCool,” a major mentoring program connecting young student filmmakers with Malibu professionals.
MCOF is supported by the City of Malibu, Pepperdine University and Charter Communications. All of our events take place in Malibu. This year’s festival dates are September 26-30.
