So much rejection. The Valley FF has not selected Stro for their festival.

RE: Stro - Greg - 07-01-2020
Happy Validation Day, everyone. Today I'm looking to the Breckenridge FF and SF Doc Fest to see if I have any self worth. To recap, SF Doc Fest was the kick in the butt to finish the doc. Even, if they don't select me, I thank them for the impetus.
And I've come to the realization, maybe true, maybe not, that if you don't hear by notification day, you are going to get picked to play Red Rover. I was looking at the SF Doc Fest website to see if they had any changes because of the lock down and they already were showing posters of some of the films that were going to be in the festival. Which led me to believe they already know their slate. I couple this with the fact that Warsaw has already sent me an invite three months ahead of their notification day. But we will see. Hope springs eternal. The counter argument is that FFs want to make a production of the announcements so they will tell us all on notification day.
Speaking of hope, I have more hope for Breckenridge than I do for SF Doc Fest. I can tell Breckenridge screened the film twice. I'm not sure if SF Doc Fest has seen the film.
Speaking of pandemics, I don't see how anybody can have a film festival at this point. AMC announced they aren't opening their theaters until the end of July. Broadway says they will be shuttered through the end of the year. It doesn't make a lot of sense to have a large group of people in a theater when we are having forty thousand new cases a day and rising.
What will probably happen for me is that I will be accepted to several festivals in Europe only not be allowed to attend because of the travel ban.
Good times.

You should make a doc about trying to get Stro into a film festival in 2020. You have the script right here on this thread. And then to make it work, have DM & The Yeti commenting ala MST3K. Add cf in that mix. Not sure which of us would be the Janitor, but we'd all make fine sarcastic bots.
RE: Stro - Greg - 07-01-2020
Gee, thanks. No.
RE: Stro - Drunk Monk - 07-01-2020
You! You Greg. You could be the janitor.
Suddenly, this thread makes sense again.

As a matter of fact, I have checked my email about 20 times this morning.
Nothing.
RE: Stro - Greg - 07-01-2020
Breckenridge has weighed in with a no.
RE: Stro - Drunk Monk - 07-01-2020
Bummer
RE: Stro - Greg - 07-01-2020
No validation from the SF Doc fest either.
RE: Stro - Drunk Monk - 07-01-2020
double plus bummer
RE: Stro - Greg - 07-02-2020
In the depths of despair of another dismal validation day, a glimmer of light comes in the form of a request for more promotional material and information from my good friend Robert at the Warsaw International Film Festival.
I'm in one festival, goddammit.
