EXCITING NEWS! We have our first screening in the US, in Hollywood at the famous Egyptian Theatre, as part of the ARPA International Film Festival. The screening will take place on Saturday 15th November, You can buy your tickets here!
UPDATE: Dear All, Just a quick update on where we are with the film. We are now entering it to different festvals around the world where we hope that it will find its World Premiere. We will, of course, let you know when this happens.
Whilst the film is finished we do ask you to be patient a little longer before it is available. It is a very delicate time, and the film must come out at festivals first before it comes out to the public. We are however planning a few private screenings to sponsors over the coming months, so that people have a chance to see it.
We know that some of you are still waiting for rewards. Our humble apologies for the delay, but due to the heavy workload of completing the film it has been difficult to get everything out that we promised. We will however, ensure that you receive your rewards in the coming weeks.
The only exception to this will be the pre release DVDs. These will be coming to you as soon as we have a distributor on board. Huge apologies, but as previously mentioned, this is a very delicate time in the film’s life and we want to ensure that it comes out in the best way possible. We will keep you informed at things progress.
Again, thank you so much for your patience and your support. We are very excited to be in this position and to have had your help in order to get there.
We will write again soon.
Lots of love,
Marta and Adam
Dear All,
First and foremost, thank you for your patience! We have been working hardtt to finish the documentary and get all the rewards ready at the same time. We are now gradually sending them out to all of you so you should receive them soon!
The film is going well, we are editing hard with long hours and lots of debate about structure. We will have a short break for Christmas and then begin the final polishing of the documentary early next year.
All being well we should finish the documentary by… February next year.
Today we reached our base target on kickstarter! THANK YOU so much to everybody who has supported us in countless ways by spreading awareness, by sending very touching messages and making incredibly generous donations. It amazing how much Hannah touches and inspires everybody all over the world.
We still have 16 days to go before our deadline. So anybody who would like to be part of this beautiful project still has the opportunity. Further funds that we receive will go to making the film even better and help us to spread it all over the world, introducing more people to this most wonderful woman.
“Dear Friends, we are absolutely overwhelmed and touched by the support we are receiving. It’s wonderful to have so many people involved. To say thank you we’d like to share this clip from the actual film. We hope that you enjoy it.
We’ve almost reached our base target! But please continue your support. If we go beyond, all money will go to making the film even better and help us to spread it even wider all over the world!” We will keep you posted on how and where you can see it.
Watch this space… Lots of love, and thank you for all your support and good wishes!
