We had some great opportunities presenting Mars in the Pacific Northwest this past week, with a screening at Movie Monday in Victoria, B.C., a local haunt for all kinds of thought provoking material, with a strong inclination to show mental health films. Quite pleased that the main programmer and proprietor of the weekly night Bruce Saunders (my personal paparazzi photographer), chose our film - that's him in the introduction.
If you can believe it, there was actually a lively Q&A.
The next morning at 8am, Bruce and I screened some clips for some doctors and clinicians for Vancouver Island Health Authority. I did a talk on specific issues I believed were relevant and touched on why I made the film. Couldn't have done the trip without their support.
That very evening included cancelled flights and a sprint to Portland at the beautiful Hollywood Cinema (endless gratitude to Dan Halstead and the rest of the buds at the Hollywood).
We even got a couple of reviews in the Willamette Week & The Portland Mercury.
Hope to see you soon Portland!
