Another festival invitation comes from Sardinia, where "Room 67" will have a special screening out of competition during the Babel Film Festival at the premises of the Humane Society - Film Archive in Cagliari on November 29, 2011.

BABEL FILM FESTIVAL is the first film competition whose aim is to appreciate and promote the cinema relating the linguistic minorities, giving voice to their history, culture, and language. Some 50 million EU citizens, 10% of the EU population, speak a regional or minority language.
Sign language in this regard is considered a minority language as well - that is why "Room 67" would qualify for the festival.
