The marathon begins on May 30th, at the Reggae Meeting festival, and continues with United Islands of Prague, Rock for People, and Colours of Ostrava, ending on August 24th at Hip Hop Kemp. Among the most interesting of the many films being shown are The Pied Piper of Hützovina, about Gogol Bordello frontman Eugene Hutz; Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars, a film about African refugees; Once, which received its premiere at last year's MOFFOM festival; the Beastie Boys documentary Awesome; I Fuckin' Shot That!; Samba!, about the Rio carnival; and Tengir-Too, Mountain Music of Kyrgyzstan, a documentary about the close relationship between man and nature in that area. There'll also be a selection of films about New York, which will be the main focus of this year's MOFFOM festival, and some of the most interesting music videos produced by the American television channel Link TV.
