Just Facts launches in Berlin
Berlin, Germany
(Saturday February 7, 2009) – ID
Communications Inc. announces its “Just Facts” line of international
feature documentaries, it was announced by Dan Shannon, President of ID
Communications at Berlin’s 59th European Film Market (EFM).
The “Just Facts” line of feature documentaries premieres 4 new
theatrical documentaries at the EFM, seeking to position itself in the growing
market for strong ‘point-of-view’ issues-driven documentaries intended for worldwide theatrical release.
“Our
aim it to meet the growing demand for shocking factual stories told on cinema
screens where fundamental issues in our society are often swept under the
carpet by mainstream media, either because of fear of advertiser reprisal, or
simply because many of the news formats and ‘reality tv’ formats no longer
adequately lend themselves to exploring complex issues” said Dan Shannon.
"We
are excited that our first 4 films in this strand all raise important questions
about our rights to know ‘the facts’ in their respective areas of inquiry, but
above all, remain solid entertainment with strong potential for exploitation on
DVD and other media. If the films
subjects are ‘too difficult for television’ remains to be seen. We are entering the market with a solid range
of committed and prospective theatrical and DVD partners from Canada, US, Australia,
South Africa, UK, and more. ”
The “Just Facts” launches at EFM:
“America
The Beautiful” – challenging America’s notions of ‘beauty’ and
self-esteem
“Expelled:No
Intelligence Allowed” – questioning freedom of
inquiry for scientists
“Frag” – Exploring
the social impact of the exploding world of video gaming,
“American
Savannah” – A humorous critique of America’s
fascination with green grass
