Screening at CMS Vatavaran

Elliot and Naveen head into the 2015 CMS Vatavaran Festival at the New Delhi Convention Centre

CMS India is a non-profit think tank that runs the annual CMS Vatavaran Festival. They invited us to India to screen Worse Than Poop! at the festival, which was held in the New Delhi Convention Centre. We were put up a block away at the YMCA Tourist Hotel.

India is 11.5 time zones away from California - about as far away as you can get. As long as we spent time outside, we were ok - but on the day of our screening we spent most of our time inside darkened rooms watching movies. I don't recommend this approach to getting over jet-lag, or to enjoying an otherwise lovely film festival. 

Other than the terrible jet-lag, we had a great time. The film was well received, and Elliot is getting very good at public speaking. (We even avoided getting Delhi-belly!)

Festivals Around the World

I'm delighted to report that Worse Than Poop! will soon be screening at two more festivals, on two more continents! 

On March 27 and 28, the South African Eco Film Festival will screen the film as part of Small Seeds Hold Great Potential and Be The Change film programs, in Capetown, South Africa.

By the end of the year, SEFF will have visited Slavonski Brod, Koprivnica, Zadar, Šibenik, Tribunj, Brodarica, Murter, Zagreb, Pula, Rijeka, as well as the Green Fest in Belgrade, Serbia, Barents Ecology Film Festival in Russia and Rover Film Festival in Ukraina.

In June, it will play in the Sisak Eco Film Festival, a festival that travels - by bike! - to cities throughout Eastern Europe.

I've submitted to many other festivals, and will post here with results as we hear back...
