Speaking in Code is starting to take on a life of its own. The most recent development came from Seattle, where an enthusiastic fan when back to Dallas crowing about the film. And now we have a screening in Dallas. Sunday, November 8th at 5:00pm, at the Angelika Film Center, the sister to NYC’s more famous NoHo destination. More info here.

As for New York City, we are happy to say it will premiere at the CMJ Film Festival. Wed, October 21st at 2pm, at the Norwood Theater, 241 W 14th St., b/w 7th & 8th Ave. Those with a CMJ badge need to RSVP here for entry. As for people without a badge, we’re finding out what the deal is there. Sign up for the Twitter service to be sure to know the latest.

The San Francisco screenings of Speaking in Code are also approaching rapidly. People can buy tickets right now, and if we can sell out both shows, we can prove a demand for other shows in the area and are considering working with promoters on a bigger event.

Friday, October 23rd, 9:15pm
Thursday, October 29th, 7pm

Also next weekend, the film gets screened in Krakow, PL. Though we are still looking for an official premiere of the film in Europe (more on that soon!), we’re proud to be a part of this extraordinary festival.

We also appreciate the rising demand for screenings in your area. Both in our email and on the various Web 2.0 sites, we get hit up about the release date every day. We are hoping to have a DVD plan by the end of the month. Despite the overwhelming demand for the film to be seen, bear in mind we are still a small operation.

We are now open to talking to people about screenings, especially seasoned promoters and people with contacts to local theaters. Please contact us if you can help, drop us a line at info@squar3.com
