Planet Earth Here We Come! ![]() The move out from North America is underway. Last week
2500 people attended BLEEP screenings in Tokyo at Dr. Emoto�s
Festival of Water and Peace. We also screened to Distributors in
London and Amsterdam, and have a distributor proposal from
Australia.
If you are where we are not, and want to see what
the fuss is about, call your local theaters and request them to get
the film. (They�ll then bug the distributors, and there you have
it!)

$10,000,000 Box Office Here We Come! ![]() They said we couldn�t do it because they said you didn�t
exist. This number is a big deal for the entertainment industry. We
(meaning you too) are blowing open the doors to more interesting
films being offered to the public (see below for more info�)

Your
Interview! ![]() We have been getting requests from editors
and reporters for stories from people who�ve seen the BLEEP
and whose life has been impacted by the movie. Recently a paper in
Minneapolis ran a story
like that. Attendance doubled in that town. People out there
want to hear from real people, not us filmmakers, about what is
happening.
If you have had an experience you would be
inspired to share, please go to this page
on our site and enter it in the form. If editors wish to talk to
someone we will draw on this database. Be assured we will only send
these to qualified media outlets.

The First Bleep
Conference ![]() In a weirder then weird turn of events, The Prophets
Conference is hosting a conference Feb 4-6 in Santa Monica, CA
based on subjects introduced in the film. Most of the people
interviewed in the film will be there, along with the filmmakers and
some of the actors and actresses (check back for who will be there
as schedules are just now filling in.)
There will be talks,
panels and discussion groups. Not to be prophetic, but, we see talks
around dimly lit tables going on �til 4 in the morning�

And
Finally. INDIGO! ![]() �Where there�s a will, there�s a way.� Getting films
made, then distributed, then into theaters is not easy. Especially
if it's not your standard film. For years Steven Simon has been
working, talking, writing, and lecturing about Spiritual Cinema.
He�s formed film clubs and Cinema Circles increasing awareness about
the need for something new in the theaters. Then he made a movie.
And as you will read below, he has come up with a completely
original way to offer the film to the public.
Like so much
of Steven�s work, this not only opens a venue for his film, but also
opens up amazing possibilities for other films to test the market
and by-pass the very high cost of entry. It costs about $1200 for
one 35mm print of a film. For Indigo to open in say 100 theaters
$120,000.
What he has figured out, is a way to
electronically distribute the film, and then show to the theater
owners and distributors that people will come and see it. This way
there is not the big investment up front. Aside from being a great
idea, this paves the way for others! Who knows maybe there will be a
�Saturday Night at the Movies� every week where we filmmakers from
around the world present something new and intriguing�
The
following is from Steven � it�s what he sent out to his email list.
And thank you Steven for all your support!

INDIGO Theatrical
Event---Tickets On-Sale Today!! ![]() Please see www.indigothemovie.com for
a preview of the film and all the information!
On January
29, 2005, thousands of people around the world will have the chance
to see the feature film that everyone has been talking about. After
the amazing success of "WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW," enthusiasm for
Spiritual Cinema is at an all time high. INDIGO begins the next wave
of these inspiring films, and we hope you will be able to join us
for this unprecedented event.
WHY IS THIS EVENT
UNPRECEDENTED?
This is the first time a film like this is
being released nationally in a mainstream chain (AMC Theaters) as a
test to see how many people are interested in movies that inspire
our lives. As of now, INDIGO is scheduled to play only once in each
theater, and our intention is to fill each and every one of them.
When that happens, even more theaters may open up for us on January
29. In addition, AMC will likely book INDIGO again and be much more
open to showing films from this new genre. This is our goal, not
only for INDIGO, but for every inspiring film that deserves a
mainstream audience. This is a way for us to make these spiritual
messages available to millions of people who would usually not be
exposed to them.
PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT BY ATTENDING A
SHOWING OF INDIGO NEAR YOU!!!
Not only will INDIGO be shown
in select cities around the US on January 29, but, in cities where
there are no AMC theaters, there will also be nearly 200 churches
and other organizations showing the film the same day, all around
the world. Many churches in Canada, around the US, Europe,
Australia, Asia, and many other places, are excited to be part of
this phenomenon. In most cases, these tickets will be sold by the
churches themselves.
PLEASE
BUY YOUR TICKETS ONLINE NOW!!
In most cases, the
theaters showing INDIGO have less than 150 seats, and we anticipate
them selling out very fast. This is also much more than a movie
screening, but a world wide event. Tens of thousands of people will
be watching INDIGO at the same time, and will also have the chance
to see a special filmed introduction from the creators of the film:
Stephen Simon, Neale Donald Walsch and James Twyman. Also, everyone
watching the screening in a church anywhere in the world will get
the chance to see and hear James Twyman and Doreen Virtue (author of
"The Care and Feeding of Indigo Children") on film.
Simply
go to www.indigothemovie.com and
either purchase your ticket, or pick the church you want to attend
if there is no theater near you. More churches are added each day,
so if you don't see one in your area today, please check back, or
talk to your church about being a sponsor. Also, as theaters sell
out, we may be able to add more. More details about this are on the
INDIGO website.---so please help us reach that goal and show that
there are millions of people who are yearning for films that affirm
life and spirituality.
Please pass this email on to your
friends and we'll see you on January 29.
Thank you so much
for your enthusiasm and support for INDIGO!!
Stephen
Simon
James Twyman
Neale Donald
Walsch
