Northwest Film Forum: "Will Screen Indie Films for Cash"

We were at the Northwest Film Forum last night--Throw Down Your Heart, the Béla Fleck banjo-across-Africa documentary ends tomorrow night--and executive director Lyall Bush came out with a tip jar, asking for $35,000. That sounds like a lot, but just a little while ago it was $70,000. So they are halfway, but August 15th is almost here. If you haven't given yet (suggested donation is actually $10, if you don't have the whole $35,000), think about donating or getting a membership.

And considering that Sub Pop has stepped up to the plate to match all donations made since the 6th, you've now got twice as many reasons to give.

while i love all film, i've only been to the NWFF a handful of times. however, something about their plea got to me and i gave $10 last week. really hope they reach their goal!
