Sonoma International Film Festivals Results

The Sonoma International Film Festival was a big hit! www.sonomafilmfest.org. The first screening of ART and Revolutions was soldout at the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art, screening on March 28. The film was introduced by the new CEO of the San Francisco based Mexican Museum, Cayetana S. Gomez www.mexicanmuseum.org.

A second screening was set up to allow for the those who could not be seated for the first screening. The second screening was at La Luz Community Center which we believe would have put a smile on JG Posada's face as the center provides services to many people in the community most of whom are from Mexico. The   second screening was introduced by the new Cultural Attache of the Mexican Consulate in San Francisco, Paula Linares Cruz, http://consulmex.sre.gob.mx/sanfrancisco/.
The director, Victor Mancilla flew in from
Los Angeles to take part in the question and answer sessions that followed the screening.

Thank You to Natasha Marin for Providing Piano Music for ART and Revolutions

The piano music for ART and Revolutions was performed by Russian born and trained Natasha Marin. Although schooled originally as a classical pianist Natasha’s abilities extend well beyond the classics. She in fact performs for a variety of events many of which for charity and often with her husband actor/comedian Cheech Marin. For Art and Revolutions, Natasha provided several interpretations of musical compositions by Mexican composer Agustin Lara (1897– 1970). Natasha captured the spirit of Agustin Lara's beloved compositions in a way we hope and believe would have pleased Posada himself. Thank you Natasha!
