The National Donor Sabbath consolidates the individual donation efforts of many faith communities into a national effort for all faiths who wish to participate. Donation and transplant professionals join faith communities to focus on the lifesaving and enhancing gifts passed to others through organ, tissue and blood stem cell donation.  Click here for more information.

Last week, two years after filming began in Japan, THE POWER OF TWO screened to large and enthusiastic audiences at the Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF)! 

Misako, Andrew, Isa, Marc & Naomi on Opening Night at TIFF

Director/Producer Marc Smolowitz and our Japan liaisons Associate Producer Naomi Takeuchi and Japan PR Coordinator Misako Kitaoka kicked off the festival by walking the "green carpet" alongside luminaries such as Jackie Chan and the Japanese prime minister.  Isabel Stenzel Byrnes and Producer Andrew Byrnes joined shortly thereafter for the black tie welcome party and the remainder of the festivities. 

In addition to two well-received public screenings and one industry screening at TIFF, THE POWER OF TWO and our team garnered substantial interest at TIFFCOM (TIFF's affiliated market for film and TV in Asia) and from the media in attendance.
