The jury of the 2009 SCINEMA Film Festival has awarded Between the Folds the honor of BEST FILM.

SCINEMA, a science film, video and multimedia festival, brings a rich film program as well as a number of guest speakers to 150+ towns and venues throughout Australia – from Cairns to Hobart, and Sydney to Perth – as part of National Science Week, August 15 – 23, 2009.

Festival director Cris Kennedy contacted us with the good news, passing along the jury’s statement, honoring the film:

“…for so elegantly and succinctly capturing the science of art and the art of science.”

We’re extremely humbled by this award and we promise to post a photo of it upon its arrival in Brooklyn, which – we hear – is a “hand-crafted trophy that doubles as a kaleidoscope, made from Australian timbers”!!

It will probably sit next to the Granny Award (a large mass of granite) which we won in New Hampshire (The Granite State)!

BIFFIt was a particularly special weekend as the film’s executive producer Sally Rosenthal, composer Gil Talmi and featured subject and origami mathematician Dr. Tom Hull were all present, along with director and producer Vanessa Gould.

We were quite impressed by BIFF and wish to thank everyone who came out to the Brooklyn Heights Cinema, as well as  Nate Kensinger and everyone else at the festival for such a fabulous weekend!
