On March 15th Children of Invention will premiere theatrically in NYC. The critically acclaimed independent feature film written and directed by Tze Chun will be shown at BIG Cinemas Manhattan. The film which is set in Boston and was shot in and around New York City, had its World Premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, played over 40 film festivals, and won 15 festival awards, 5 of which were Grand Jury or Best Narrative Feature prizes, including the top prize at the Independent Film Festival Boston and Newport International Film Festival. The film was named one of the "Top 13 Films of 2009" by Hammer to Nail and made several "Best Undistributed Films of 2009" lists. It has also gained notoriety for its hybrid DIY distribution strategy, including being one of five Sundance films to launch YouTube Rentals. The filmmakers were recently named in Ted Hope's list of "21 Brave Thinkers Of Truly Free Film".
