Posted by Richard on August 11, 2010
From the Moving Picture Institute:
The Cartel has been selected to screen at the Atlanta International Documentary Film Festival ("DocuFest Atlanta") this month! The screening will be Friday, August 20 at 7:30pm, at the Young Blood Gallery. Admission is $8. Get tickets and learn more about the festival on their website.
In September, The Cartel will screen at the Burbank International Film Festival. This will be the film's tenth festival appearance since its release in fall 2009.
While being selected is an honor in itself, The Cartel has also won numerous awards. These include the Visionary Award and the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the 2010 Washington DC Independent Film Festival, the Silver Screen Award at the 2009 Nevada Film Festival, and the Audience Award at the 2009 Hoboken International Film Festival, among others. See TheCartelmovie.com for a complete list. Congratulations to The Cartel for its success!
If you avoid documentaries because you think they're boring, give this one a chance. Granted, there are no explosions or fancy special effects, but The Cartel is a powerful, compelling, and highly entertaining film. I strongly recommend it.
