Hi Toby,
I thoroughly love every aspect of your film. You must be very proud of it. It’s completely mesmerizing and provoking. Every single frame is a stunning composition of light and movement, and the poetry feels profound. The world sure could use more movies like Streetsweeper.
Please give my regards to Neil and Marin, and I’ll get back to you soon.
Tony
It may be that our film will have a further life in festivals after all!
Salutations Sweeperettes
The time has come for Streetsweeper to go on tour.
We want to screen our film to as many folks as we can from Brisbane to Adelaide come September.
Are there any independent cinemas left?
If so we want to know about them. We also want to find any other great alternative screening venues you may know of…
Also - if anyone has any connections at universities or colleges who may be interested, put us in touch.
The more tips and local knowledge you have for us, the better. Visit the forum and leave us a message
thanking youse…
It’s Sunday morning & I set the alarm clock so I could get up early-ish cos I’ve got a lot of writing about the film to do, and I’m feeling a bit guilty about my work ethic. You might have noticed that Toby (”TR” below: we share writing duties on this site), after working long hard days, has been posting very late at night & doing everything he can to give the film a good chance at finding its audience, locally & abroad. So, he has been sending off applications for film festivals left, right & centre: which till now (except for Perth: which was great fun!) have been coming back negative, but that’s okay, we’re confident this will change cos, so far, the early applications were based on rough unfinished versions of the film. [We prob’ly could have held off entering any festivals until the film was fully finished, now, but then we wouldn’t have got into Perth & we were/are hoping to find some more pro-active supporters out there. Anyway…] Now we can send out the film with more confidence. Meanwhile, I will be piecing together some written support material & press kit stuff based on a hundred half-arsed documents on my desk top… Nm
