Entry Denied - "2012 Jury Honorable Mention Special Recognition"

Update #10 · Jun 19, 2012 · comment

Entry Denied gets the "2012 Jury Honorable Mention Special Recognition" at Provincetown International Film Festival!!!

It has been a great honor to be among so many great films (The Invisible War, How to Survive the Plague, Any Day Now, and many others).  We had an amazing time, and had the opportunity to meet many other talented filmmakers and industry representatives. Actress Parker Posey received the Excellence in Acting Award, Director Kirby Dick received the Faith Hubley Career Achievement Award, and Director Roger Corman received the Filmmaker on the Edge Award. 

The film received a great audience reception and a had a good QA session following the film. The majority of people in the audience  had never heard of this issue before.

We are thrilled and honored to received this special recognition and we want to thank the Jury members, the Provincetown International Film Festival Director and Programmers for giving us the opportunity to screen in such great festival,  and we also would like to THANK  YOU, our Kickstarter supporters out there!!

Here is the link to the Festival's website for the full description
