Statement provided by Mme. Karina’s publicist:
“Madame Karina has sustained non-life threatening injuries caused by an accident that will prevent her from traveling to the Festival. She has already cancelled all public appearances and she wants everyone to know that she is especially disappointed to have to cancel her appearance at MVFF. She is deeply touched and moved by her selection as one of the recipients of the 2009 Mill Valley Film Festival Award, and she has reassured MVFF that she will travel to Marin in the spring to receive her award. In the meantime, she is recuperating very well and taking the time, while recovering, to work on her next film script, which she plans to put into production next year.”
