Robert Greenwald, the director of last year’s wildly influential Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price, has a new film from Brave New Films, “Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers,” to be released this October, and we want you to get involved in its premiere. NALIP Member Carla Gutierrez edited this film, and invites you to sponsor or attend a screening.
The film will expose the hidden truth of rampant profiteering in Iraq through the stories of soldiers, whistleblowers, survivors, and families of loved ones lost to corporate greed. “Iraq for Sale” can trigger a vital debate on our country’s priorities in Iraq just a few weeks before America votes.
This is a huge and unprecedented opportunity for us to have an impact, so NALIP encourages you to hold screenings on Saturday, October 14th, during an entire “Patriotism over Profit” week of screenings.
You have a chance to host one of these screening in your home, church, business, school, living room, or community center. Learn more and sign up here: http://iraqforsale.org/screenings.php?track=nalip
Artists and advocates are very excited by the impact it can have. The DVD is available for pre-order now (it ships late September) and you can support the film, Carla and the effort by ordering a copy, whether you are hosting a screening or not. Pre-order it for only $12.95: http://iraqforsale.org/buy.php?track=nalip

Help Choose the Winner of the 2006 Manhattan Short Film Festival

Friday, September 22nd, 8 p.m.

URBAN-15 Studios

For the third year, the URBAN-15 Group has united with The Manhattan Short Film Festival and over 80 other venues across Europe, Canada and the US, to create the world’s largest short film festival to be held throughout two continents this September.
Over the span of a week, venues from Russia to Ireland in Europe, four provinces in Canada along with 35 states will screen a selection of twelve short films that have made the cut into this prestigious event. In the past, the Festival’s finalists, who have gone on to win Oscars and move into the Hollywood mainstream, were judged by a celebrity panel which featured Susan Sarandon, Laura Linney, Eric Stoltz, Tim Robbins and a host of studio reps. This year, the Festival has thrown the judging out to audiences, who will be handed a voting card upon entry to each venue and asked to vote for their favorite film. Votes will be tallied and the winner announced in New York City’s Union Square Park on Sunday, September 23rd.
2006 Finalists (Films are in order of how they will screen in the program)
1: Last Night (Ireland) – Director Conor Morrissey
2: Cigarette Box (Poland) Director Tomek Matuszczak
3: Farber’s Nerve (USA) Morgan Miller
4: Lyra Lezama (Cuba) Clayton Haskell
5: 3rd Parent (USA) Christina Frenzel
6: Without Seeing (Spain) Salvador Gómez Cuenca
INTERMISSION
7: Hollywood Photos of Katie Mills (USA) Paul Tompkins
8: Security (Germany) Lars Henning
9: Who I Am What I Want? (UK) Chris Shepherd
10: Serenade (AUSTRALIA) Kyle Blanshard
11: Offside (Israel) Erez Tadmor & Guy Nattiv
12: Mowing The Lawn (UK) Michael Bentham
The Manhattan Short Film Festival is growing in more ways than one. As technology advances and the medium of filmmaking becoming more readily available, the Festival is enriched by stories that might otherwise not be told. "When the festival first started back in 1997, the overwhelming majority of the shorts we received were from filmmakers who were based in major cities such as New York, LA or London," said Festival founding director Nicholas Mason. "Virtually every entry we got back then was shot on 35mm. Now with the evolution of digital filmmaking, filmmakers are shooting their stories and then editing and finishing their shorts on their home computers. We are now getting films from literally every corner of the world, so who better to judge them than a global audience."
A special Youth Media Screening is being offered for students of film and media from the San Antonio region on Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. The event will include a presentation of the twelve MSFF films and followed by a panel discussion of student and experienced media producers.
For more information visit the Festival’s website at www.MSfilmfest.com or www.urban15.org.
This event is supported by the City of San Antonio Office of Cultural Affairs, The Texas Commission on the Arts, The National Endowment of the Arts, American Sunrise, VuTURE ART and the generosity of Friends of URBAN-15.
SA48HR Film Experience
Are you ready for the experience?
Some 48 Hour Film events are projects. Some are even challenges. Welcome to a new kind of event - The San Antonio 48 Hour Film Experience. More than a project. More than a challenge.
Grab a camera, put a team together, and make a film in 48 hours.
Unlike most other 48 Hour Film events, the SA48HR Film Experience is a true test of a team's filmmakers. Limited to only ten (10) participating teams, each receives a genre, character, line of dialogue, and most importantly, a LOCATION. That's right, no props, but a location that must be used in the team's film. And what a location we have.
This year's SA48HR Film Experience will feature the beautiful Enchanted Springs Ranch Western Town. Main Street, the Judge Roy Bean office, the historic Spanish chapel, Old Town, and the Enchanted Springs Saloon are just a few of the period sets available at this visitor destination/movie set just a few miles west of downtown San Antonio. With more than 85 acres, filmmakers are sure to find the perfect location no matter what their film genre!
San Antonio's 48 Hour Film Experience is set to roll the weekend of October 3th, with a final screening (time and location to be determined).
So get your teams together, and check out the website at www.sa48hr.com for all the latest news.
