Vincent Who?

Thanks for all your support. We’ve had a busy summer so far, wrapping production, working on post and doing some last-minute fundraising for the film. (More details on how you can help below.) In the meantime, we’re starting to hear back from some film festivals in the fall.

So far, we’ve been accepted to the the DC APA Film Festival (Oct. 4th screening date), the Austin Asian American Film Festival (Oct. 9-12), the Houston Asian American Film Festival (Oct. 11th screening date) and the Vancouver Asian American (Nov. 6-9), as well as the film program of the Facing Race conference in Oakland (Nov. 13-15) and the NAASCON student conference in Atlanta (Oct. 17th). On top of that, we’re waiting to hear from a couple of more film festivals who have given us positive indications. So, as you can tell, we’re gonna get pretty busy!

Now, this is the part where you can help:

1.) If you’re located in one of those cities and you would like us to come visit your school or community group, please let us know. Most film festivals don’t have the funds to bring out documentary film makers, so it would be great if you could afford to bring us out to your school around the same time! (We’re also in negotiations with colleges in MN, NC, WI, upstate NY, WA, MI and FL about coming out. Please let us know if you want to save costs and share expenses.)

2.) Donate. We’re in the final stages of post and any additional funds we can get would go a long way. We have managed to get this far without any grants or donations. Your support would mean the world to us. And if you pay by check, donations are tax-deductible! Email us at apafp@apaforprogress.org and we can tell you how.

3.) Finally, keep spreading the word. Tell you friends about our film. Tell your friends about Vincent!

Thanks and look forward to seeing you this fall in a city near you!
