TALES FROM THE FESTIVAL TRENCHES

So you made a great movie – now what?

A FREE seminar centered on Paul Osborne’s OFFICIAL REJECTION. The movie documents the sometimes glamorous (often harrowing) journey through the film festival circuit. Scott Storm’s TEN ‘TIL NOON, and John Daniel Gavin’s JOHNNY MONTANA are featured in the film - and are also screening at the IIFF.

Osborne, Storm, Gavin (and other directors) will discuss the reality of the film festival situation, and share candid tales with the audience before (and after) the film. Sorry, latercomers will not receive FREE admission to the screening of OFFICIAL REJECTION.

Location: Edwards Boise Downtown Stadium 9

When: Sunday, September 27, beginning at 11:15am
