Goodbye to the Lookout Cafe

Our last ever film show at the Lookout was a sell out on Thursday 29th October. 

The main feature, a fascinating documentary about Mark Bittner, who cared for the wild parrots of San Francisco, focused on someone who was trying to help and understand the natural world but this was preceded by a short film emphasising the harm that can be done to it.  We were delighted to welcome Saffron Summerfield, a singer, composer and sound artist as well as being a film-maker, who introduced her film Mermaid's Tears.  Saffron had used Kimmeridge Bay as the setting for her film and explained that Mermaid's Tears are the small plastic pellets, the waste product of the plastics industry, washed up on shores around the world which end up in the guts and stomachs of fish, birds and sea mammals, causing great harm.  The two films made a fitting end to our evenings at the cafe.

We have been showing films at the Lookout Cafe for 5 years and shall miss this cosy and welcoming venue.  Thanks to all the Lookout people who have been so helpful and supportive of the Festival over this time.  We look forward to returning to Durlston Castle when it reopens in 2011.
