The Edwin Johnson Award:
The Faithful Fools will be giving out the first Edwin Johnson Award. The Edwin Johnson Award has been created by Citizen Cinema and the Faithful Fools Street Ministry to honor an unsung Tenderloin hero. Edwin Johnson was a, once homeless turned homeless advocate, and a founding member of the Tenderloin yGroup Player's Ensemble. He appears in several of the 9 @ Night Films and embodies the spirit of this award. Edwin never forgot his life on the streets nor his friends there. His journey out of homelessness to advocate for the people of the Tenderloin is an example to us all. This special award recognizes an individual or group which embodies the spirit and dedication to others which is Edwin Johnson's legacy.

"If you get the gist of the 9 @ Night movies you get the gist of the Fools. That's where the rubber hits the road."
Reverend Dr. Kay Jorgensen, Co-Founder - Faithful Fools Street Ministry

BendFilm presents The Breast Cancer Diaries

For ten years, Ann Murray-Paige covered the news -- but for the biggest story of her life she turned the camera on herself. When Murray-Paige, a former television reporter and anchor, learns she has breast cancer at age 38, she sets up a diary camera in her bedroom. Ann’s video diaries -- raw and true -- are punctuated with humor, poignancy and romance.

THE BREAST CANCER DIARIES is a chronicle of illness met with attitude, symbolized by the “Cancer Sucks” button that Ann pins on her shirt. Throughout it all there is humor -- from a hospital flashing scene to a young son’s attempt to heal his mother with a whoopee cushion. The resulting documentary is an unfettered, unvarnished memoir of the year that changed one woman’s life.

Sharkwater is filmed in visually stunning, high definition video. Filmmaker, Rob Stewart takes viewers into the most shark-rich waters of the world, exposing the exploitation and corruption surrounding the world's shark populations in the marine reserves of Cocos Island, Costa Rica and Galapagos Islands.

Sharkwater began as an underwater adventure but turned into a beautiful and dangerous journey into the balance of life on earth.

Driven by passion fed from a lifelong fascination with sharks, Stewart debunks historical stereotypes and media depictions of sharks as bloodthirsty, man-eating monsters, and reveals the reality of sharks as pillars in the evolution of the seas.

In an effort to protect sharks, Stewart teams up with renegade conservationist Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Their unbelievable adventure starts with a battle between the Sea Shepherd and shark poachers in Guatemala, resulting in pirate boat rammings, gunboat chases, mafia espionage, corrupt court systems and attempted murder charges, that force them to flee for their lives.

Through it all, Stewart discovers how these magnificent creatures have gone from predator to prey, and how despite surviving the earth's history of mass extinctions, they could easily be wiped out within a few years due to human greed.

Stewart's remarkable journey of courage and determination changes from a mission to save the world's sharks into a fight for his life, and that of humankind.

Synopsis:
At the edge of the Millennium, The Dalai Lama of Tibet invited 40 of the West's leading, most innovative thinkers in their respective fields to his residence tucked away in the Himalayan mountains of Northern India to discuss the world's problems and how we can solve them. What transpired was unexpected and powerful, and was captured by an 18 person, 5 camera film crew. The Wakan Foundation for the Arts took its 18 person crew to India and shot more than 140 hours of video footage during the week-long meeting and exploration of the future of mankind-- enough gripping and beautiful footage to make a powerful and cinematic documentary. The resulting feature-length documentary, “Dalai Lama Renaissance,” has already received a very positive response, and will be widely released and distributed in the second half of 2008. “Dalai Lama Renaissance” is narrated by actor Harrison Ford.

The Festival is open to all non-fiction audiovisual forms, such as author’s documentaries, creation documentaries, experimental essays, diary films or works created using home, orphan or recycled materials.

Punto de Vista aims to be a meeting point for all documentary film makers who, in a free and experimental way, explore the cinema ability for recording time and, as Jean Vigo used to say, “open our eyes and help us to look beyond the appearances”.

Considering the nature of this cinematographic author, Punto de Vista is an invitation for all film makers who offer a wider reality perception across their glances, and across their untransferable points of view, and who understand that the first of all ethical compromises for a documentary film maker is that one related to the cinematographic form itself.

Lebowski Fest is a bowling event celebrating all things relating to the Coen Brothers 1998 film, The Big Lebowski. It can be likened to a Star Trek convention in a very loose sense. The event takes place at a bowling alley and includes unlimited bowling, costume , trivia, farthest traveled, and bowling contests, prizes, and what-have-you. The friend of the Coen Brothers who inspired the main character played by Jeff Bridges, Jeff "The Dude" Dowd has been known to make an appearance and drink some White Russians. The 1st annual occurred in Fall of 2002 in Louisville, Kentucky and the 2nd annual took place in July 2003. We then headed way out west to Las Vegas for Lebowski Fest West in Feb., 2004 which featured an appearance by Jim Hoosier who played Liam (The Jesus's bowling partner). The 3rd Annual Lebowski Fest in June of 2004 brought over 4000 Achievers and included an outdoor concert with My Morning Jacket. Lebowski Fest New York was held in Aug. 2004. Lebowski Fest hit a milestone in LA when Jeff Bridges showed up with his band and played "The Man in Me!" He was wearing his jellies. Lebowski Fests have also been held in Austin, Texas.

The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) is a prestigious, publicly-attended film festival held each September in Toronto, Ontario,Canada. The festival begins the Thursday night after Labour Day (the first Monday in September, in Canada) and lasts for ten days. Between 300-400 films are screened at approximately 23 screens in downtown Toronto venues.

The TIFF is among the top film festivals in the world. In 1998, Variety magazine acknowledged that "the Festival is second only to Cannes in terms of high-profile pics, stars and market activity." Quoted by the National Post in 1999, Roger Ebert claimed "...although Cannes is still larger, Toronto is more useful and more important...." It is the premiere film festival in North America, from which the Oscars race begins, and the world's largest festival open to the general public.

WHAT IS CON-X-TREME?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CON-X-TREME is volunteer-run event held this year over the extended Labor Day weekend at the San Mateo Marriott Hotel. The primary area of emphasis is focused on the creation of art and other media, traditional and non-traditional, without the limitation of holding true to a certain theme or topic.
While some may view this as simply it is another anime or science fiction convention event, the real opportunities this event brings forward is an opportunity for fans of all mediums to meet and network with both other fans and professionals alike. Whether it be physical art, virtual art, film & television, video games or music, CON-X-TREME attempts to have compelling, knowledgeable, and well-spoken Guests of Honor who are willing to spend time sharing their experiences within their respective industries, mentoring our attendees through discussion panels, classroom instruction, and other programming events.
Throughout each day of the weekend event, CON-X-TREME presents curriculum through a series of classroom programming where event members may participate in the discussion or hands-on study of particular subjects.
CON-X-TREME is not all classrooms, lectures, and study however, as we temper much of the proceeding with many other programming alternatives including, but not limited to, the following:
v A 24-hour anime programming room featuring professional and fan-created animation videos and programs;
v A room dedicated to premiering the latest in console and computer video games and technology;
v Dedicated space for costume gatherings and workshops which will culminate in a full costume contest event;
v Event space which promotes and displays artwork from many of the Bay Area’s most vibrant and popular artists;
All in all, CON-X-TREME aspires to provide opportunities for the truly creative side of fans and professionals to mix freely within an environment which inspires creativity and spontaneity.
