The Screen Directors Guild of New Zealand (SDGNZ) has invited NZ director Jason Stutter to bring his feature film Predicament to Hollywood for a 'Director Finders' screening in a unique partnership between SDGNZ and the Directors Guild of America. 'Directors Finders', established in 1998 by the DGA's Independent Directors Committee, is a chance to spotlight undistributed independent feature films and their directors. "The idea behind the screening is to assist the director to North American distribution and to showcase New Zealand directors," says SDGNZ President Peter Bell.
Predicament is writer/director Jason Stutter's third feature film. "Having the DGA and SDGNZ support Predicament for this opportunity is unbelievably exciting. The reason I started making films was because I grew up loving movies and many of them from Hollywood, so having my film screen at the DGA feels pretty amazing," says Jason.
The screening will take place on November 5th 12010 in the prestigious DGA Theatre on Sunset Boulevard and will be followed by a Q&A session with Jason and a cocktail party. Predicament opens in NZ on 26th August 2010.
