The Impact Arts + Film Fund and Green Film Company held a screening of GERRYMANDERING last month in Washington, DC to rapt audiences, curious to hear what Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Congressman John Tanner, former congressman Martin Frost and moderator & Washington Post reporter Jonathan Capehart had to say about the pitfalls of politically-inspired restristricting and the importance of the public understanding how political districts are drawn, especially during the 2010 census process. Director Jeff Reichert created a strong record of "gerrymandering" told with insight and humor, sure to fuel debate for further legislative efforts to improve the system. The film will be continuing its festival cycle, and we will report back when theatrical and broadcast dates are set. Until then, check out a review of the film from Tribeca at CinemaBlend, or learn more about the film here.

The IMPACT ARTS + FILM FUND (IAFF) was created as a platform for arts, documentary and narrative filmmaking to engage with the political and policy arena. IAFF is based in Washington, D.C., and was co-founded by Jody Arlington, Jamie Shor and Kimball Stroud, three veterans of the political and entertainment arenas. IAFF hosts screenings, panel discussions, promotional events, and book launches to educate and enlighten its audiences and creates a climate for meaningful social IMPACT.
IAFF's fiscal sponsor is New Venture Fund, a 501(c) 3 public charity. New Venture Fund was established in response to demand from leading philanthropists for efficient, cost-effective and time-saving intermediary services. NVF offers unobtrusive support and facilitation - focusing on enhancing our clients' ability to execute their visions. Our open-architecture system offers donors a custom-built platform at a lower price than most other nonprofit intermediaries.
