Namaste Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Journey halfway around the world to a country where you walk everywhere, where what you eat everyday is grown right outside your front door, where your gods have many forms and many colorful festivals. Journey to a showing of In the Shadow of the Himalayas: How People live in Nepal, the recently released, 30-minute educational video produced entirely by Seattle talent. TWO SHOWINGS: Sunday, April 25, as part of the Seattle International Documentary Film Festival, http://www.sidff.org/in_shadow.html (ticket: $7) – 11a. Shows are selling out so buy tickets at http://www.sidff.org. You can also get them the day of the show. The showing will start promptly at 11a so arrive early to get seats. (The film will show before the 2-hour showing of Shepherds’ Journey into the Third Millennium, which you can stay and watch for same price). Tuesday, May 11 (free) – Seating: 7-7:30p; Showing at 7:30p. Official Seattle Premier at Hamilton International Middle School Auditorium – Only 250 seats, so come early. (Note: If we fill the auditorium, we will hold a second showing at 8:30p.). Hamilton is at 1610 N 41st St. in Wallingford. MAP THE PROGRAM: In the Shadow of the Himalayas takes you on an educational journey with sixth-grade students from Seattle's Hamilton International Middle School as they explore living in a country where its people are surrounded by the tallest mountains in the world. The Seattle students can’t wait to learn more about the country because they have a sister school in the Katmandu Valley. They are sending art supplies and cameras to the students at the Kavresthali School. Join them as they enjoy the photos from their sister school students and learn more about how people live in Nepal. In the Shadow of the Himalayas was produced as a not-for-profit venture and profits will benefit a girls’ scholarship fund in Nepal through Room to Read (www.roomtoread.org). PRODUCER NOTE: We will be setting up additional Seattle showings and will keep you informed of their dates and locations. However, if you cannot attend an event and would like to buy a DVD or VHS, please send payment to the address below. DVD and VHS copies will also be available for sale at the May 11 showing. SEND PAYMENT TO: Smudge Productions, LLC 1320 NE 62nd Street Seattle, WA 98115 Please indicate whether you want a DVD ($30 + $3 shipping) or VHS ($25 + $3 shipping). (Additional Note: In the Shadow of the Himalayas: How People Live in Nepal was produced as a volunteer effort at very low costs for an incredibly high production value. Once we raise the final production costs of only $6,000 through the sale of DVDs and VHS copies, all additional funds will go directly to a girls’ scholarship program set up through Room to Read [www.roomtoread.org]).
