First, some news we received from the Madrid International Film Festival 2020.
“Due to the coronavirus outbreak, we considered that we can not take the festival as the original form. We are very sad and disappointed that we can take the festival in a beautiful city, Madrid. However, we decided that we are going to do the festival online. We would like to provide a great time at this tough moment. We hope all of you enjoy the festival at home. Our online festival will be happened on 1st and ends up on 5th of September.”
This means, on the one hand, that we will not be going to Madrid to attend. We’d be the only people there. On the other hand, it sounds like there are going to be packages available to attend on-line screenings! So, you can attend!

Seven Lessons: Lesson Four, The Rite of Sol
We’ve been working on a series of seven short videos wherein we discuss our process and the lessons we learned along the way. In this video Jon peels away a layer of the symbolism behind the work, talking about how themes and characters wind their way through the seven part narrative.

In addition we’ve cut together another clip with memories shared by the cast and crew spanning the decades of our creative process.
Thanks again to everyone who has been watching The Rites of Eleusis, sharing the videos with their friends. The outpouring of support has been moving, and we are so grateful to everyone who helped to make this work a reality!
