NomadsLand hosts regular monthly screenings of independent feature films and documentaries about crucial social and political issues of international importance. Our Washington D.C. group has grown quickly in six months into a committed community of filmmakers, activists and policy makers. This has prompted us to begin rolling out our Virtual Theater Network in the following cities: New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, London Our screenings usually take place on Sunday evenings and function as "dinner theater for people in the know." Each screening features an independent feature film and a 30-minute panel and roundtable discussion and planning campaigns. Filmmakers join the groups via Skype videoconferencing from all corners of the globe - Amsterdam, Barcelona, Dubai, Boston so far - in order to field questions from our live audience. Wonderful food is available. For a filmmaker, this is the next best thing to theatrical distribution without the overheads.
Our 2008 calendar will include: NETWORK PREMIERES - All six film groups will download the same film and project the film to its audience for a six-city network wide premiere. LOCAL FILMMAKERS - Groups can partner with local filmmakers to feature work they have on NomadsLand. ADVOCACY PARTNERSHIPS - Groups can produce co-sponsored film nights with foundations, activist groups, social enterprises or non-profits to raise awareness about issues and campaigns.
If you are an international filmmaker, have a social issue film and would like to be considered for an upcoming screening in a major film capital with an audience of 200 or more, please e-mail
