Welcome to our COMMUNITY SCREENINGS page. This FAQ will help you learn more about our how to screen The Power Of Two in your local community. Please read it carefully, and note the link to the application form at the bottom of this page. We look forward to hearing from you and working together!

Why should I screen “The Power Of Two” in my community?

“The Power Of Two” will educate, enlighten and entertain general audiences as well as those in the organ donation and transplantation, cystic fibrosis/chronic illness/health care, and Asian American/Japanese communities.

Just imagine how you and your organization can use a high-profile, high-impact screening of the film to (1) reach out to your community, constituents or customers; (2) show your appreciation to volunteers, employees, or donors; (3) engage conference and convention attendees; (4) educate patients and families; or (5) fundraise!

When will the film be available for screening?

In most areas of North America, the film will be available for theatrical and other screenings with 100 or more expected attendees starting November 1, 2011. If you’re interested in a smaller event, please feel free to contact us. The film is available for both public and private screenings.

Can Ana, Isa or the filmmaker participate in my screening event?

Subject to availability, absolutely! Whether it’s introducing the film, or participating in a Q&A or lecturing afterward, the combination of screening the film and hearing insights from the Stenzel twins and/or Academy Award nominated producer and director Marc Smolowitz, will deliver a unique experience the audience will never forget!

What about the fantastic musicians on the soundtrack?

Now you’re raising the bar! If you would like to put on a gala event that combines the power of film and music, we would be happy to help you find the right soundtrack musician(s) for your event.

Is the film available in languages other than English?

At this time, the film is available only in English. If you are interested in screening the film in a non-English-speaking country, or in a language other than English, please contact us.

How much does it cost to rent the film, or have Ana, Isa and/or Marc appear?

The fee for renting the film for a screening depends on (1) whether you are charging people to attend the event where the film will be screened, (2) how many people you expect to attend, (3) whether those featured in the film and/or the filmmaker will be participating in your event, and (4) the type and size of organization hosting the event (e.g., not-for-profit or for-profit).

In addition to a film rental fee, if you would like those featured in the film and/or Marc to be a part of your event, there will be an appearance fee plus the cost of travel from the San Francisco Bay Area.

We can provide an estimate of the film rental fee (and, if appropriate, appearance fee(s)) for your event if you fill out this application.

Please note that you may incur costs to rent a venue, provide refreshments, promote your event, and run your event, for which you will be responsible, in addition to the film rental fee and any appearance fee payable to us. As with any substantial event, you should consider ways to lower or recoup your costs through in-kind donations, ticket sales, sponsorships, and the like.

We are seeking financial sponsorship for our Outreach & Community Engagement Campaign, which would offset our fees and other costs for certain screenings. If you apply to screen the film and we obtain funding applicable to your event, we’ll let you know right away.

Can you provide any assistance to help make my screening a success?

Sure! We are developing a Screening Planning Guide, which provides tips on how to handle all aspects of your event, including developing a high-impact program around the film, engaging other local and regional partners, managing your event, and promoting the event through advertising, social media and earned media.
