[NYC-L] NYC-L Digest, Vol 64, Issue 5

[Kreshnik Berisha]

Hi Afrim,

I am happy to have received your e-mail, especially for seeing the
Albanian community members are interested in the film.

In order to answer your question on bringing EXIT to Australia, I will
have to speak to the producing company of the film and get back to you
with more information.

As far as I can tell you, I reckon that since the film is "fresh from
the oven", it might take a few months until it exploits the
possibilities of participating in International Festivals first,
before being able to be shown in regular Cinemas. I think that for some reason
festivals usually come before showings in regular cinemas. For this
reason, the screening of the film has until now happened as a part of
the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival, during
the Los Angeles event, where it had its world premiere and was awarded
as a result. Now, as you now, the next event of this festival is in
New York.

In any case, I will get back to you with further information, as soon
as I hear from the producers.

Te fala,

Keka
