I know what you’re thinking: “it’s been ages since we heard about The Coin appearing at a new film festival.”
Well, worry no more 
When I first read Fabien Martorell’s message letting us know (thanks to him) about this my mind, not surprisingly, headed ‘down under’. I was all ready to make references to the 2018 Commonwealth Games, sun, sea and sand. The initial research into the Gold Coast International Film Festival didn’t immediately disabuse me of this idea. Then I saw the address.
The Gold Coast in question is a nickname for the northerly coast of Long Island, USA, not the one Queensland, Australia. With all due respect to the residents of New York state I’m guessing that they are not quite the same.
I am also going to go out on a limb and suggest that the weather in the north east of America in early November will not the same as the east coast of Australia at the same time. Surfers Paradise vs snowman’s delight
The GCIFF will be taking place at the Great Neck Arts Center, Great Neck, New York over the course of the first full week in November.
As we’ve become used to at this stage the exact details of the film festival are not yet finalised so we’ll have to update you nearer the time. Check out the official event website here.
