SF Green Film Festival...March 3-6th at the Landmark Cinemas at Embarcadero Center (in the heart of Frisco).

I love San Francisco! I was born there... and this is such a heartfelt thrill and an honor to come show our film in THE place which has such historic connection to our film...Flower Power was born here.

Friends...clik and "like" on our own SFGreen FF Webpage...the more BUZZ we create, the more folks will come see our film and spread the message. This is such a wonderful opportunity for our film...thanks everyone for helping 'share the love'... kevin

Ojai film festival offers a taste of Hollywood mixed with beads and incense.

If you drive about an hour northwest of Los Angeles, tucked away into the coastal hills, you 'll find Ojai. A native American word meaning 'Moon's Nest'. Ojai has about 8,000 residents, a mix of L.A. retirees, Hollywood veterans, farmers and many counter cultural folks who love its spiritual,small-town vibe..sits at the base of some impressive mounts called the topa topas...At sunset the hills glow warmly in what the natives refer to as 'the pink moment".

We enjoyed some warm moments ourselves as we showed our film at the 11th Ojai film festival Nov. 4-7th. Met lots of Southern Californians at Ojai who loved our film and thanked us for its sweetness, honesty and uplifting message. Great weather greeted our Southern Cal debut along with good sized audiences too...We loved both the Art Center and Ojai Playhouse venues.

We attended some terrific workshops with legendary cinematographer Michael Chapman (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Last Detail), listened to the wisdom of Independent Producer Larry Turman (the Graduate), rubbed shoulders with other filmmakers from L.A., latvia and AFI and saw films you just can't see anywhere else...Special thanks to Steve and Liz Grumette for sharing their home with us and talking us up with locals...who couldn't have been warmer...thanks Ojai!

Ironweed Films makes "Garden" its September Film of the Month!

We're so stoked that Ironweed Films of Oxnard, CA. has chosen our film as their Film of the Month for September! This is a passionate, progressive, socially-responsible group of film lovers who know that many folks will never see Independent docs outside the film festival circuit. To bridge this gap, they offer a provocative film festival on DVD every month.

We came by B.A.R.T.... to San Francisco.

The symbol we all know...redone in the Haight at the Red Victorian Bed, Breakfast and Art. Painted by owner, Sami Sunchild, today in her Eighties... still dedicated to encouraging social and environmental responsibility. See more at peacearts.com

A moment of grace in the SF museum of Modern Art..."you should be showing your cowboy boots here!" a stranger said to Judy. Have a peek at frimframdesign.com

Downtown on Montgomery...signs of the past, present and future

A Love child In the Mission at the Noe Valley Ministry to show our film (it's the steeple on left). No kidding...I am a love child. I was born here. French Hospital, Geary Ave. Total 49ers and Giants fan growing up. I love this place.

A dedicated group came out to see our film, some who remember the flower power days personally and some who did not...thanks to our hosts, Ramon and Judy Sender, for the opportunity to screen at the venerable "Odd Mondays film series" . (We really did take the B.A.R.T. to S.F.)
