Marfa Film Festival Blesses Echotone

Riotous success warrants one thing, and one thing only… gratitude – We could tell you about how amazingly special the past weekend has been, or you can paint a picture for yourself by checking out the pictures and press coverage below.

From a sold out screening of over 500 attendees at the Crowley Theater, to a live Teepee Cast from El Cosmico to the Talking Pictures Festival in Chicago, we just want to express our extreme thanks to Robin Lambaria, Ralph McKay, Rob Crowley, David Beebe, Kathy Berger, Ines Sommer, Brian Grabiner, Miguel Rangel, Lulu, Tootie, all of the other amazing members of Marfa Film Fest, the Talking Pictures Fest, our publicists Heather West and Lily Pollak, and the Marfa, TX community.

Two years ago we embarked on a journey to document something so hard to describe, yet so profoundly felt.

The result of this documentation resulted in an 88 minute exploration of the present cultural zeitgeist, living, breathing, sleeping in the gulleys of 10th st. and the alleyways of Red River.

It brings us great pleasure to announce that Echotone will World Premiere at the cultural epicenter of Marfa Texas on Friday, May 7th 2010 at 4:30 PM at the legendary Crowley Theater and Premiere in Chicago the following evening, May 8th, 9:00 PM, at the Next Theatre as a part of the Talking Pictures Festival.

Our producers and Director Nathan Christ, cast members Bill Baird, Black Joe Lewis, and Cari Palazzolo  will all be on site to celebrate in Marfa TX and be a part of the Q&A following the screening on Friday at the Crowley.

We will also be streaming Nathan’s Q&A for the Chicago Premiere of Echotone live from Marfa, TX, direct to the Talking Pictures Festival audience via the world wide web. You can check it out right here – Saturday, May 8 at 10:30 PM CST.

Get Tickets to the World Premiere of Echotone, May 7th, 4:30 PM at the Crowley Theater, Marfa Film Festival 2010, Marfa TX.

Get Tickets to the Chicago Premiere of Echotone, May 8th, 9:00 PM at the Next Theatre, Talking Pictures Festival 2010, Chicago, IL.

Much love to Producer Daniel Perlaky for designing a poster that represents an idea hard enough to describe in words let alone in one single image.    Feel free to download it, post it, repost it and share with a friend.
