As summer winds down, we have started hearing great news from fall festivals.
Please mark your calendars and go
here for new details and events as we add them.
First, we're honored to announce that
the
United Nations Association Film Festival will screen
Code Oakland
Oct. 20-30 in venues around the Bay Area.
The theme this year is
Compass for a Better World, which perfectly fits the important work
Code Oakland stars
Kalimah Priforce,
Kimberly Bryant and
Van Jones are doing to increase diversity in the tech industry. To get a glimpse of the issue, watch our
On the Loudspeaker interview with CNN's
Van Jones
here.
Next, we have just learned that TEACHED will return to the amazing
Napa Valley Film Festival for a
third time (!) with our new short film
Think of Calvin. This wonderful festival, where
Code Oakland won a
Jury Honorable Mention last year, has supported our indie film project from the get-go. Grab
festival passes (and a wine glass?) as soon as you can for
Nov. 9-13.
Lastly, we are excited to return to the cool
Williamsburg Film Festival in Brooklyn, NYC also with
Think of Calvin. This one's coming up soon:
Sept. 9-11. Hope our NY fans attend and send some social media love. (Twitter: @TEACHED, Facebook: @TEACHEDFilms).
