London and Rome Film Festivals
Great news,
'In Prison My Whole Life' has been accepted to have it's worldwide premiere in the 51st BFI Film Festival and the Rome Film Festival in Italy.
The film will premier on the same night on Thursday, October 25th. Marc Evans, the films director will be presenting the film in Italy, while myself, Colin and Livia Firth, Nicola Giuggiolli, Katie and numerous others involved in the project will be in London.
For the London film festival, the film will be shown at the Odeon Leicester Square at 6.30pm on the 25th of October for it's official world premiere. It will then have a second screening at the BFI Southbank Studio on the 26th of October at 7.30pm. On the 28th of October at 2.15pm we will have a third screening as part of the festival at the Ritzy Cinema in Brixton with a Q & A session with myself and Marc Evans after the film.

When I have more info about the Rome festival, I'll let you know.
Personally, I'm still a bit in shock about it since when we started this I couldn't imagine it getting into the film festivals and sitting on a billing of 'New British Cinema' with Nick Broomfield.
I'm a bit nervous about the attention and having to do question and answer sessions but it's a good chance to get more of a debate going about Mumia's case and the upcoming decision in the third circuit.
Check in with the myspace page to keep up to date with the screenings as well.
Tickets go on sale to non-BFI members on the 29th of September. We're hoping for a full house so we'll hope to see you there.
