Hello friends--

Summercamp! opens at the Siskel Film Center Aug. 25-28. I'll be there
on the 25th for a Q&A, along with some of the kids in the film, with a
reception to follow sponsored by IFP Midwest. This is open to the
public (IFP members receive a discount ticket price on the 25th), and
should be a lot of fun. Rumor has it there will be camp snacks and
crafts (and bar) at the reception...

I look forward to seeing everyone and catching up, and please pass the
info on to your Chicago friends!
Thank you!
-Sarah

REVIEWS:

"the saddest, sweetest, most magical and most deeply affecting movie of
the season." SALON.COM <http://SALON.COM>

"Summercamp is a riot of talent shows and campfires, canoeing, and
holistic clowning." THE NEW YORK TIMES

"With tenderness and joy, Bradley Beesley and Sarah Price capture the
precious moments of preteen freedom—not from parents and school, but
from self-awareness and doubt." TIME OUT NEW YORK

"Pure and heartbreaking, if you don't relate to this film you were
never a kid." CHICAGO TRIBUNE

"A sweeter, more unassuming movie isn't likely to come our way anytime
soon." NEW YORK POST

"utterly charming.........Beesley and Price's young subjects are smart
and unusually articulate, and they talk about their lives with a
perspective one doesn't expect from children." TV GUIDE ONLINE

"Summercamp, a marvelously honest new film." NEW YORK SUN

"In its shuddering truth, Summercamp! dares to suggest that the grand
disaster of youth as we knew it was actually... fun." THE REELER

"A feel-good hit for the summer" THE ONION
