The Screening of America

Good news! The WOW feature documentary, Children of God: Lost and Found, has been accepted for competition at the Slamdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, in January, screening on the 21st and 23rd. Directed by first-timer Noah Thomson, it's his first-person account of growing up in the evangelical cult and his search for others who made it out alive. It was edited by Mike Rysavy who, as talent and hard work would have it, has another WOW movie he edited screening at that other Park City festival, Sundance. Miss Navajo was written and directed by Billy Luther, who got the idea to shed some light on the annual Miss Navajo Nation Pageant from his mother, who won the crown in 1966. Fans of absorbing docs will be spending extra time on the Park City shuttle.
