Distribution in the U.S.

So, I can finally announce we have secured distribution in America.
Its a limited release in early 2010 but at least it will be in cinemas over there.

I will post more info as I can, but basically I want tos ee if we can build some kind of support amongst animation fans. A good opening in the limited release would encourage a broader distribution in theatres. Later we will of course have the DVD s over there but our hope is that people will seek it out in cinemas first!

So, if you are in America , and want to see indy 2d animation with non-mainstream subject matter get a chance, please come along and help us get as many "bums on seats" as we can!

    Will the Secret of Kells create a European animated feature distribution surge in the US if successful? Pokemon and Dragonball Z were sucessfull in the US and they created a surge for anime made for both TV and film

    I will do whatever I can to help spread the word.

    Are you going to have it at the Ottawa International Animation Festival in October '09 ?

    Who's doing the limited release in the U.S. ? Is it Sony Classics or some such outfit ?

    I'll ask my local "art movie house" the Enzian Theater (home of the Florida Film Festival) to book it . When in 2010 ? Who's the contact ?

    Sweet! I've been hoping for news like this. I just hope it'll play in a theater relatively nearby so I can go see it. (If not, I suppose I'll just have to buy either a DVD release if it happens for America or buy an import DVD. *laugh*)

    I just stumbled on a clip from the film last night, and was so bummed to hear it hadn't been released in the US. How great to hear that it will be over here soon!! Here's hoping it graces a screen or two in the Atlanta area!
