ACCLAIMED Namibian film-maker Cecil Moller has spent the last few years as a Fulbright Scholar in California, where he gained his masters degree in directing.
Tonight he debuts one of his newest short films, ‘Marvin and Stevie and God’, at the Franco-Namibian Cultural Centre (FNCC) at 18h30. The film centres around Marvin, a Catholic priest who leads a content life with his best-friend Stevie, a goldfish. When he accidentally bumps the fishbowl to the ground and Stevie is no more, a depressed Marvin soon dies of a heart attack. Waking up in purgatory, Marvin meets God, a kind and forgiving man with a twisted sense of humour. The film received the first prize at the Yosemite International Film Festival Short Script Competition in 2009.* Entrance is free. For more information, contact the FNCC on 061 387 337.
