ion saga continues (boring)

I have waited for two months now to hear from you regarding the above. I have patiently hoped that you will exercise some maturity and professionalism and show a tiny bit of respect to me as a film maker and as a person.

You obviously have not. I am certain that you hope to wish me away..that I would disappear.

Me, I am hope so too and I will leave your radar soon I hope. I met Sam Dede, and I agreed with him that we should see that back of this whole saga. I also agreed that people will think that I have a grudge against the Ion film festival because my work was not selected. It is not true but I understand how narrow minded people will see this.

After our conversation I waited for Ion or anyone to get back to me ..no one has.. so here I am again.

If you show my work without any credits ..it is theft. Plagiarism. Simple. If you refuse to apologise for it ..it is even more insulting.

So here is what I propose...
1st you issue an unreserved apology for the 'mistake'. I will copy it to the Governor - RS and the Commissioner of Culture (if you don't).

2nd You return my film Grassmarket. (it is the second un accounted for copy that you have)
3. You pay for the Paean to PH. Your 200k offer (how did you put it - max offer)
is not good enough considering the hell you have put me through.

If you don't do these I will take you to court. I will do it at my own time and in PH. There are no deadlines.

I don't make threats, it will be with a heavy heart that I will go to court and I will. That will be my PNR - my Point of no return, after that point I will not have any more communications with you.


Thank you so much.
