Not cans. Cannes! We can’t go anywhere with you folks can we?
It didn’t make the cut at the Hawai’i International Film Festival, but local documentarian Kimberlee Bassford’s award-winning film “Cheerleader” is good enough for Cannes — and the HBO Family channel.
Bassford has been invited to screen “Cheerleader,” her master’s thesis film at the University of California-Berkeley, as part of the Kodak Emerging Filmmaker Showcase at this year’s Cannes International Film Festival. It airs on HBO Family at 6:30 p.m. Friday.
