THE GROVE: COMING TO PBS IN DECEMBER
healing nature
This new Open Eye Pictures film tells the story of the little-known, almost hidden, National AIDS Memorial in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. It asks questions about what it means to be a national memorial and how best to remember an epidemic that killed more Americans than all the U.S. wars in the 20th Century. THE GROVE has several upcoming festival screenings, including one this Saturday at the Sausalito Film Festival in the producers' hometown. In the works is a PBS broadcast beginning on World AIDS Day, December 1st. And stay tuned for more information about iMemorial, our groundbreaking mobile app using mapping and augmented reality to create and place virtual memorials for loved ones.

THREADS: A NEW FILM SPINS TOWARDS PRODUCTION
human nature?
Fifteen years after her mother's death, journalist Marisa Fox discovers a buried secret: her mother had been in a Nazi concentration camp as a young girl. There, she and other Jewish girls from German-speaking Silesia in Poland toiled as slaves, turning flax into threads for S.S. uniforms. Unlike the typical holocaust story, they all survived. A lost diary of the girls' days in the camp resurfaces in Australia, and Marisa finds there in the handwriting of a mother she never really knew clues about the cost of secrets--and the way they thread through generations. A story about sisterhood, survival and secrets, THREADS is now in production, but we need your support to finish the film. Please consider a tax-deductible contribution today. We're also looking for interns for the film. E-mail us if interested.
