Now this is our kind of festival… Solatrium will enjoy its Asian Premiere at the 2010 International Science Fiction Film Festival in Korea. This international film festival will be held October 28th – November 7th in Gwacheon National Science Museum (http://www.scientorium.go.kr/jsp/intro/main1.jsp), the biggest and newest science museum in Korea. 2010ISFF focuses on international and Korean science fiction films, with particular attention to supporting creativity in the science fiction genre. We are particularly excited about this festival because no English will be spoken!

Solatrium screened at the 16th annual Twin Rivers Multimedia Festival in Asheville, NC on Friday, May 28th. It was nice to screen in our home town again as an Official Selection for the festival.

Solatrium screened in the Genre Mash-up Shorts Program at the Maryland Film Festival on May 7th and 8th. The Baltimore City Paper writes, “Chris Bower’s Solatrium features pretty, dead-eyed Bria as the captain of a space tanker enduring the ennui of space life. Her solace is the meds she applies in patch form. Beautifully shot and disorientingly paced, Solatrium illustrates once again the old sci-fi adage: hallucinogens + prescription drug trial = space madness!”

We will also screen footage from Director Chris Bower’s documentary projects We Won’t Bow Down – about the Mardi Gras Indians – and The Holy Ghost Electric about the soul gospel circuit in the South.

While some people were drinking hot toddies and snuggling under down comforters, the Solatrium mobile unit was mashing up video on snow banks, buildings, and people on Main Street in Park City. Guerrilla film making meets mobile street promotion at Slamdance 2010!
