The Gala Welcome dinner had to be cancelled which led to a major financial loss for the host. The festival went off very successfully, with 6 premier documentary releases. Huwaida Arraf, a Palestinian activist, also spoke at the festival. Thanks for all your concerns. Khalil Amod, CEO, Channel 4 Network, SA. Cynthia arrived in SA, but a day later.

To let you know... A new report said Cynthia was rebooked and may get to South Africa for conference. The reason the airline gave for taking her off the plane was that she did not have enough "Blank" pages in her passport. (Why would they not figure that out until after she took her seat???)
