We have good news for the international fan community:
Ivan’s dark (horror) comedy short film The Dead Collectors is streaming on at least two of four film festivals!
The world premiere, however, will take place live on a big screen in London at the FrightFest on Friday, 27th August, in the Short Film Showcase One from 3:45 pm.
Ticket link for this event: https://www.frightfest.co.uk/holdingfolder2/tickets.html
We assume that Ivan will not be able to attend as he is very busy at the moment but it is not entirely impossible.
The first streaming option is available only regionally (mainly in the UK, Ireland and the Isle of Man) through the FrightFest on 3rd September.

But the international streaming premiere will follow fast through the Sydney Underground Film Festival from 9th September in the “Other Worlds” short film category (p. 55 of the flip book).

The film will also be shown in Block 4 of the official selection at the Exit6 Film Festival (18th-25th September 2021) and at the ScreamFest in Los Angeles (12th to 21st October 2021)
In other words: This short film will have quite a nice run in the festical circuit.
Ivan plays Peter, the senior of the two main characters whose job it is to collect the bodies of the dead during a pandemic in an alternate reality.
Let us see if there will be an award coming Ivan’s way finally!
Also starring: Jennifer Martin, Connie Jenkins-Greig and Hector Jenkings-Greig.
