Hello, I am hoping to show this at a film series. Would you please let me know anything you can about distribution/availability? rrakes@hotmail.com
Hello, any information on how to obtain a copy would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!! crp1978(at)gmail(dot)com
Hello all,
Icarus Films distributes this title. http://frif.com/cat97/k-o/middleto.html
Icarus Films DOES NOT distribute this film -- they distribute a censored bootleg version that is a mess.
The film is available from the filmmakers, DeMott/Kreines Films, in 16mm.
Any version that does not have hand-written titles is a fraud.
Please contact me about getting a copy of this. I saw it once in San Francisco and was mesmerized.
