1st of many.

tuesday, the 18th of august, bagdad had their nw filmmakers screening and we were there.

"august" was shown, our first film made as a solidified collective, and it was well received. the program was 2 hours of locally made films--and here in portland it's all about the locally grown. the films included shorts on par with "august", a few up to 20min or so, an animated film, and at least one film shot on 16mm. all different and creatively inspirering.

"august" well was received--a wave of silence reached over the crowd as dan "sexy chest" klockenkemper filled the bagdad's large screen--and we expect to hear back any moment about our first place prize (or at least honrable mention?).
