HOPE+ [Matthew]
I am very pleased to let you know about the release of a documentary I directed called HOPE+ : Surviving The Sentence of HIV / AIDS. It tells the story of four people from around the world who are both Christians and HIV+.
HOPE+ was shot on location in Russia, South Africa, Jamaica, and Chicago and was two years in the making in total.
You can check out the trailer, along with behind-the-scenes pics, and various other goodies, at the project's website: www.hopepositive.com
MySpace page: www.myspace.com/hopepositive
It would me a lot to me if you would check out the site and see what's happening.
Also, we're premiering the documentary at the end of the month (Monday, November 27th, 3-5pm, Enzian Theater in Maitland, FL). All are welcome. Details at: www.hopepositive.com/rsvp.
Okay, that's enough shameless self-promotion for one night. As always, thanks for listening.

Whoa. If the movie is half as hot as the site... So, I looked for it on IMDb.com, but didn't see it. What gives. Adn is it 'hope plus' or Hope Positive?
Um... the website is called hope postive. O_O
Did you mean Monday NOVEMBER 27th or are you just giving everyone PLENTY of time to get ready? :-)
Thanks, Regular Jeff. November, not August (serves me right for trying to post at midnight).
Yeah, anonymous, a few people have seen just the 'HOPE+' and not known how to pronounce it, but yes, Jordy is correct, it's 'HOPE Positive' an obvious nod to the phrase 'HIV+ (positive)'.
The doc will show up on IMDb once we screen at a festival. We've just applied to Slamdance, SXSW, and the Florida Film Festival, with many more to come. So, those of you listening and reading who are righteous-- you know who you are-- ask God to smile on our little film.

Wow! Funny AND talented! You're pretty awesome, Matthew!
With all the righteousness I can muster, I ask God to give you guys a "nod" as you venture out with this film.
Gracias, Senor Jefe.

Hey Matt -
I see Pam & Kid Rock are calling it quits. So sad. I am shocked to see it end so quickly.
I wonder who won the pool?
