What a premiere! /
We’ve had a fantastic premiere at Minneapolis St. Paul International Film Festival. Stories I Didn’t Know sold out TWICE and so many people have reached out to us with lovely messages of support and post screening reactions. Our 45 minutes Q&A on Sunday, May 17 was attended by approximately 170 viewers and we’ve received so many questions and thoughtful messages that we are still going through them. If you missed our Q&A you can still watch it below:
Here you can read a couple of the wonderful messages, our audience sent us:
“It is beautiful and powerful, and so vulnerable and the stuff that healing is made of.”
“This was a beautiful and powerful film. The compassion of Rita and Ramona Kitto Stately as they shared and heard each other’s stories, and Rita’s willingness to recognize her priveledge and learn more by reaching out to others was amazing. It provides a path for all of us.”
“A powerful film about history, generational trauma, and the importance of actions to extend and recieve healing.”
On the closing day of the festival, May 23rd we were ranked number 1 for Audience Award at MSPIFF39! The final votes are still being tallied but we will let you know if we won as soon as we hear ! Such an honor to be #1 best documentary only after a week of voting. Follow us on our social media channels for more news. (Facebook Twitter and Instagram ).
Listen to the interview the directors of the film gave One Week Only, a podcast about independent & international cinema.
