REMEDY at the Female Eye Film Festival in Toronto

REMEDY was been selected as part of the Late Night Underground program at the Female Eye Film Festival in Toronto, and went on to be nominated for Best Foreign Feature at the festival.

This was a truly fantastic event, a festival recently named by MovieMaker Magazine as one of the “50 Festivals Worth the Entry Fee in 2014.” Created by Leslie Ann Coles to showcase the talents of women filmmakers worldwide, it was one of those festivals where everyone talked to everyone, where name talent mingled with first time directors. It was truly and honor to be included in the lineup.

La Fête du Slip

REMEDY screened three times in Lausanne, Switzerland as part of gender and sexuality film festival La Fete du Slip on March 7, 8, and 9..

I was lucky enough to be able to attend this festival, and I want to commend everyone involved for their support and kindness… and for putting me up and taking me cheese shopping. I hope to be a part of it next year! (Hopefully my French will improve by then as well.)

REMEDY is Screening at Seattle Erotic Arts Festival August 3rd

Most of the accepted films will be appearing as part of the Erotic
Short Film Showcase on Sunday, August 4th at 5 pm, but the accepted
feature, Remedy, will be showing on Saturday August 3rd at 5pm
.

So there you have it. A few weeks ago, REMEDY was selected as the ONLY FEATURE to be screened at the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival. This is significant for two reasons: feature films are normally *not* part of their programming, and the rental of the Grand Illusion Cinema was arranged specifically because the festival wanted audiences to see REMEDY at it’s best.

This screening marks the OFFICIAL PREMIERE of the FINAL CUT of the film. CineKink NYC had the honor of screening the penultimate cut, but after taking things back to the lab, shaving a few minutes off, and retweaking the sound, REMEDY is truly ready for her close up.

Tickets for the screening are $12 and can be purchased at Stranger Tickets
or at the Grand Illusion Cinema on the day of the screening. A short Q&A will follow.

REMEDY was awarded Best Narrative Feature

The CineKink Festival was an ideal venue for Remedy’s premiere, and we were honored to be selected to open the festival on February 27 to a packed house at the Anthology Archives.

Said the festival founder, Lisa Vanderver: Remedy is precisely the type of film we exist for, and it feels very fitting to have it open our milestone, tenth season,” said Lisa Vandever, co-founder and director of CineKink. “Cheyenne has done an amazing job at creating a colorful yet sympathetic look at some of the characters that inhabit the city’s kinky landscape, conveying both the fun and self-discovery that can be found within it, and the importance of knowing where your trust is best placed.

We continue to spread the REMEDY word far as we put some more polish on the cut. Visit us frequently for updates!
