Dear Washington Science Fiction Association:

I handle the promotions of films in the DC area for THINKFilm, and am
currently working with them to promote the film PRIMER, which won the
Grand Jury Prize at this year's Sundance Film Festival.  Since the
plotline evolves around an engineering breakthrough, I am contacting
science organizations in the area to see if they would be interested in
distributing advance screening passes for the film to their members.
Please see below for screening information and for the film's synopsis.
If you are interested in receiving screening passes, please let me know,
and I will be happy to send them to you for distribution.

PRIMER (opens in DC on October 15th)

Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival and
the Alfred P. Sloan Prize for advancing science and technology in film,
PRIMER is a mesmerizing and unique experience that introduces us to a
gifted new filmmaker, Shane Carruth.

PRIMER is set in the industrial park/suburban tract-home fringes of an
unnamed contemporary city where two young engineers, Abe (Carruth) and
Aaron (David Sullivan), are members of a small group of men who work by
day for a large corporation while conducting extracurricular experiments
on their own time in a garage.  While tweaking their current project, a
device that reduces the apparent mass of any object placed inside it by
blocking gravitational pull, they accidentally discover that it has some
highly unexpected capabilities--ones that could enable them to do and to
have seemingly anything they want.  Taking advantage of this unique
opportunity is the first challenge they face.  Dealing with the
consequences is the next.

A mesmerizing thriller, PRIMER was written, directed, produced by and
stars Shane Carruth.  The film is rated PG-13 by the MPAA and has a
running time of 82 minutes.

Best,

Ivory
