The screenings of “The Fish Belong to the People” on November 29th and 30th at Duke University went swimmingly. Director William Hyler showed the film to Walking Fish, a CSF created by several of the graduate students at Duke University. If you would like to learn more about Walking Fish please visit their website at www.walking-fish.org.

The Camden International Film Festival was a huge success! Leading up to the premiere director Will Hyler was the talk of the festival doing several newspaper interviews as well as the local news. Then the movie premiered to a completely sold out audience at the Strand Theater, something not yet done in the history of the festival. The buzz leading up to the film wasn’t unfounded and everyone involved with the film couldn’t be more excited.
A big thanks to the CIFF and everyone involved for a great festival and wonderful world premiere!
Our website is currently going through some major changes, so check back later if you can’t find what you’re looking for. The updates should be complete by October 9th, thanks!
Our film is getting buzz!
That highly sought after but constantly illusive quality called “buzz” seems to be paying a visit to our film, and as a result tickets for the film are available all week. If you visit the CIFF website or the Strand Website it will tell you otherwise, but an exception has been made due to popular demand and you can buy your ticket for “The Fish Belong to the People” in person at the strand this week (September 28th – October 3rd). I’m told they’re expected to sell out, so get yours as soon as you can!

Director William Hyler interviewd for an article at NewEnglandFilm.com:
I’m happy to announce that our film will be shown to the public for the very first time at the Camden International Film Festival at the beginning of October. Filming was wrapped up on the 5th of October one year ago, so it’s a nice reminder of just how long we’ve been working to get this ready.
For anyone interested in getting tickets, you can head over to the CIFF’s website to get VIP or Film passes for the event. If you’re only interested in seeing this film, you can purchase tickets at the event.

Help us Bring this film to youUnlike most documentaries of this scope the Fish Belong to the People is a project almost entirely self-funded, meaning the incredible time and costs involved fall to the filmmakers. We've come a long way, but there's more road to cover yet. Contribute to the cost of the project and help get this film with it's important environmental story seen by as many people as possible! |
