We are honored and delighted to announce that Sleeping was awarded Best Film in the short film competition at the EuroShorts Film Festival, held in Warsaw, Poland. Sleeping screened with 65 short films and a group of professional American ads (created by Sam Mendes, Rupert Sanders, and Dante Ariola among others) over the course of 5 days. EuroShorts is the only festival in Europe that combines short films and television advertisements. The festivals' purpose is to promote ambitious, independent filmmakers.

Director Doug Conant graciously accepted the prize, and extended a warm thank you to the festival leadership, their judicial panel, and amazing, cinema-loving audience. Niech żyje kino Polska!

This is only our second festival! It is our hope that this is merely the beginning for the success of Sleeping.

Our short film from 2005, Broken, is now hosted in its entirety on IMDb.com! The service is offered through their subsidiary WithoutABox.com, and it seems to be a very popular venue. It will remain available at least through October, perhaps longer... or forever! Feel free to rate it. Check it out here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0818744/.

Sleeping will enjoy its World Premiere as part of the NewFilmmakers-Los Angeles Festival. This is a one-time red carpet event being held on Thursday, August 28th beginning at 6pm (shorts program at 7pm, followed by a Q&A with filmmakers).

Out of hundreds of submissions, Sleeping and three other shorts were chosen. Come out for the World Premiere of our beautiful and powerful film at this spectacular festival. ALL ARE INVITED!
