It’s official, our good friends and documentary aficionado’s at Shadow Distribution have signed on to theatrically release Under Our Skin starting in March of ’09.  In case you don’t know, Shadow Distribution is a small film distribution company located in Waterville, Maine, dedicated to releasing unusual, specialized films. The company is run by exhibitors, the co-directors of Railroad Square, which has been bringing unique film programming to central Maine since 1978.

Under Our Skin has been filling the seats at film festivals all over the county since its premiere at Tribeca last April, making quite a stir in the doc and healthcare worlds.  It won The Harrell Award for Best Documentary at CIFF this past year, and we couldn’t be more honored!  The film sold out its screening, and was one of our all-time most anticipated films.

Congrats to both for this wonderful union, it ensures that Under Our Skin will be screened to the widest audience possible…And as for Shadow, I’m constantly amazed at what two film lovers can accomplish in a small town in Central, Maine.  Their dedication to independent cinema is truy inspiring.
