Back in 2006, Caymanian filmmaker Frank E. Flowers released his first feature film Haven, a dramatic thriller filmed entirely in Cayman, and featuring an impressive ensemble cast.  Ten years and a host of industry nominations and awards later, three of the film’s stars — Zoe Saldana (Avatar, Guardians of the Galaxy, Star Trek), Anthony Mackie (8-Mile, Captain America: Civil War, Triple 9) and Victor Rasuk (Godzilla, 50 Shades of Grey) — are returning to Cayman for the 2016 CayFilm Cayman International Film Festival where Frank E. will be debuting a special cut of the movie never seen before.

Festival Director Tony Mark hopes that the reunion and special screening of the movie will inspire more young Caymanians to get involved with film.

“The movie Haven is an important part of the Cayman film community, and we are so honoured and excited that Frank E. will be sharing the director’s cut with us,” said CayFilm Festival Director Tony Mark.  “Haven and Frank E. himself has inspired an entire generation of young Caymanian filmmakers, and we are looking forward to welcoming him and the cast to the Festival.”

While here, Saldana, Mackie and Rasuk will participate with Frank E.in a question and answer session before the screening of the movie.

CayFilm takes place from 1st to 4th July, and includes daily film screenings of over 200 films from 50 different countries, question and answer sessions with filmmakers, panel discussions, workshops, exclusive premiere screenings and two celebrity gala events. Opening night will take place on Friday, 1 July and the closing gala will happen on Monday, 4 July and feature an awards ceremony.

Other highlights of the Festival include the Star Wars cast and crew reunion, the Young Image Makers Awards ceremony and the 48-Hour Film Project where filmmakers from all over Cayman compete to see who can make the best short film in only 48 hours.
