The News:
Well, we did it! This summer, an award-winning 40-member international film crew came together to produce HERE,
the first American feature film ever shot in Armenia. Post-production is now underway in New York. Read director
Braden King's reflections on this intense adventure on the film's blog.
Also up on the blog is the first episode of Project Documentarian Ava Berkofsky's gorgeous "Postcards from HERE",
an impressionistic video series that explores the travel, experiences, landscape and moods surrounding the making of the film.
Braden King will be speaking and showing select clips from HERE at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival as part of a panel called
"The Discovery Process". Scientists and storytellers will discuss what it means to be compelled by a passion for mysteries and the
unexpected and surprising places from which answers often come. January 29 at 1:30 P.M., The Filmmaker Lodge.
