Freeport, Bahamas - Despite weather conditions affected by Hurricane Sandy, an excellent turnout resulted for opening night of FLIFF On Location: Grand Bahama Island.

The originally planned outdoor screening moved indoors to the host site, the Canal House at Pelican Bay Hotel for the family movie, Sammy 2: Escape to Paradise which was thoroughly enjoyed by those that came out in the storm.

The festival was officially opened by the organizers, and Donvarcia Duncombe sang both the Bahamian and American national anthems after an opening prayer.
