Hi:
My name is Max Geschwind. I’m a 15 year old Fairfax High student. I directed a short film titled “The Milk Effect” which is about Harvey Milk’s legacy. The film is now officially up for Oscar consideration and is Oscar quaified for next year’s Academy Awards for Best Documentary Short Subject. The film features many California politicians, activists, and features 16 Fairfax High student. Here’s a link to the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ8IXkRX3BQ
It will be shown at Laemmle NoHo 7 theater November 30-December 6.
I think this would be a great article/prediction for Awards Circuit.
Please email me with your thoughts and if you’d like to talk.
Thanks,
Max Geschwind
