Flashback to November 9, 2012 at Centre Pompidou

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Not that I need a holiday to miss my friends….Jason is between Canada and NYC for the holidays and I'm missing him in Paris. Here he is after winning the ASVOFF Portal + Documentary Award for To Be Honest. On my left is Alexander Zekke who gave a spellbinding performance with Rossy de Palma for the opening . Great year, no regrets and looking forward to an even better one for 2013.

The year of the snake is going to be a good one.
