The road to festival-land...

I am working again on mailing out press kits to film festivals that we have been selected to screen in. It's funny how the absolute euphoria of getting that first acceptance is soon replaced by the busy work that will get us seen once we are there. There is much to this process. It's starting to make more sense than ever all that the studios do for their films. If this little film can take all of this effort...wow.

It has been really cool getting feedback on this project that began as a one sentence idea on a page. It soon grew to a full page, and then a screenplay. But all along, the image of a daughter, haunted by the father of her past, fixated upon the man laying dying in front of her, is what kept coming to my mind.

People who see the film can't help but personalize the story to their own lives, wondering if they would react in the same manner as this daughter. I don't want to give anything away. But check it out for yourself, and let me know what you think you would have done.
