Special Jury Prize

Last night “America the Beautiful,” won the Special Jury Prize for Best Representation of the UN Declaration for the Rights of a Child at the Chicago International Children’s Film Festival. This prize went to the film that celebrates the empowerment, encouragement, and respectful treatment of children everywhere, for all time. The Chicago International Children’s Film Festival is the largest Children’s Film Festival in North America playing over 200 films from 40 countries.

This award was special, because hopefully it will send a message to the children of the world, that we’re trying to tackle the issues, that ultimately will make it a better place for them to live.

1,000 children attended our screening. This was the largest audience of any film in the festival.

Next up for “America the Beautiful:

Opening night film at the Artivists Film Festival (www.artivists.org) in Los Angeles.

The tickets for the Green-Carpet arrivals and screening are only $20. Our screening is Thursday November 8th at 8pm at the Egyptian Hollywood Theater. This is a socially conscience film festival that is billing our Opening Night Screening as a Green-Carpet Premiere. So join us at the L.A. Premiere of “America the Beautiful,” or if you don’t live in Los Angeles feel free to pass this information on to someone that does.
