A film about a child with CF

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

There is a theatrical release of a film MY FLESH AND BLOOD. The film is

being released by Strand Releasing and HBO/Cinemax Documentary Films, and

will be opening over Thanksgiving weekend in NY, LA and SF.

Please know that Opening Weekend is absolutely a make or break time for the

film makers, so please try and encourage everyone you know to see the film

before Monday morning. Whether it is held over for additional weeks, is all

determined Monday morning, based on the performance over the weekend only.

However, if you can't see it then, obviously you are still invited to you to

go whenever you can.

Look for articles on the film in the NY Times on Nov. 23rd in the Arts &

Leisure section, and for features and reviews in the SF Chronicle, LA Times,

Entertainment Weekly, New York Magazine, and much more!

This is a wonderful film film to see over this Holiday weekend. " From

teenage romances and summer pool parties, to the unexpected death of a young

child, MY FLESH AND BLOOD captures Tom and her eleven adopted special

needs children in what turns out to be the most tumultuous year of their

lives. " The Tom family will inspire and greatly affect you, and you will

never forget them.

Below, please find the theater listings, and please note that in both S.F.,

and L.A (unfortunately not in NYC) we will be doing several Question &

Answer screenings at these theaters. Please help us spread the word, and we

hope to see you at the screenings!
