Friends, Our colleagues in Berlin need a last push to make it. Please help if you can. Only 2 days left!
Thank you very much to all that have already donated but now we come to you in full panhandler mode. We've raised over 23,000 but we need one last push. We have two days left. So check your pockets, your spare change bowl, and the inside of your shoes. Steal some from the collection tray in church or swindle the kid with the lemonade stand. Remember, you can't take it with you when you die. Anything you give us goes to the Film Gods. May they shower you with silver halide and gelatin riches.

Love, Juan + Anja *if you don't know what we're talking about read below.* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 10:20 PM, Juan David Gonzalez Monroy < [email protected]> wrote: Dear friends and lovers of film, As we hope you've already heard, 2 weeks ago, LaborBerlin, the independent artist-run film lab that we're a part of, launched a new crowd- funding campaign called LaborBerlin 2.0 - FILM AIN'T DEAD. If you have no idea what we're talking about, here it is in a nutshell: *We are raising funds to purchase professional processing and printing equipment from Film16, a small German lab that recently closed. * *Why?* (Lofty goals) Most professional film labs around the world are closing and we want to protect analog film technology and ensure the future of motion picture art. *Why? *(Practical reasons) The machines are small and perfectly suited for our space and processing needs. *Why?* (Brass tacks) We want to keep making films and this is the the way we've found we can make them. Without the lab and the people there, none of the films we've made so far would've been possible. We want to make more and we want our friends in Berlin to make more. That's why we're asking for help. We have already received a great deal of support so far (23% of our goal at the time of this message + 2000€ external donations ). If you've already helped us out know that we're infinitely grateful. However, we still have a ways to go so please take a few minutes to look at our campaign page: LABORBERLIN 2.0 - FILM AIN'T DEAD <https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/laborberlin-2-0-film-ain-t-dead/x/12950317#/> When you click, you'll see that we also have a lot of stuff you can take with you as a reminder of your good deed. We have bags, shirts, and if, you have a bookshelf or a dvd player, stuff to put on or into those and if you have walls, and we hope you do, some stuff to hang on them. For those that have kept your film projector clean and lubricated, we also have some nice 16mm prints (from Jodie Mack and Margaret Rorison) for you to take home and screen over and over again (no ticket, no festival pass needed). And finally for those that want to get their hands dirty we have workshops where you can learn to make your own films to screen when, where and with whoever you please. So take a look, give us a hand and thank you for listening. All the best, Juan + Anja -- Esperanza Collado - - - - - - - - - - - - - - www.esperanzacollado.org
