Chris poses for a photo prior to the evening's film fest at the Rainbow Bistro in Ottawa. The film festival organizer, Shawn Lukitsch, is inside setting up the DVDs prepping for the event. Chris is from Asheville, North Carolina working with the film festival, now in its third year, which is on a North American tour of Hobo-related short films. I have to thank jwcurry for alerting me to the one-night only Ottawa event. The ubiquitous traveller Mitch St. Pierre even showed up with his own 2006 short film 'Await the Freight' in tow for a last-minute entry.
