Dear FILM enThuSIaSTS,<br />
Welcome to the 2012 <strong>Rehoboth</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> Independent <strong>Film</strong> Festival! Delaware’s oldest and<br />
largest film festival is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year. I congratulate the <strong>Rehoboth</strong><br />
<strong>Beach</strong> <strong>Film</strong> <strong>Society</strong> on this accomplishment, and am proud that the State of Delaware,<br />
Division of the Arts is once again co-sponsor of this premiere Mid-Atlantic film event.<br />
The Festival has become a grand celebration of film culture in <strong>Rehoboth</strong> and the event sold<br />
more than 18,000 tickets in 2011. The great contribution of American and International full<br />
length, documentaries and short films combined with educational seminars, opportunities<br />
to rub shoulders with celebrities and family friendly entertainment is what makes the event<br />
so special.<br />
Once again this year, one particularly deserving student film director will be the recipient<br />
of the Morris and Roslyn Fierberg Student <strong>Film</strong> Award, which will be announced at the<br />
festival along with the audience favorite winning films this year. This year’s art theme<br />
features Laura Ambler’s mixed digital titled “Come to the Fest & Sea the World” is a fitting<br />
expression of how <strong>Rehoboth</strong> and the Festival have become a destination for tourists and<br />
admirers from around the world.<br />
Whether you are a Delaware native or a visitor with us, I know you will be entertained and<br />
enriched by this outstanding cultural event!<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Jack Markell<br />
Governor
