Kris Krug knows how to fill the house. I had to look for an extra seat when I arrived, because the room was filled for Kris' presentation on the BP oilspill as part of FreshMedia’s first monthly REMIXOLOGY event.

I went to the annual Women in Film Festival ( WIFF at womeninfilm.ca ) this weekend at the Vancity Theatre.
