(no jokes folks, I'm not talking about myself. ha.)

SILVERDOCS is rapidly approaching and I can’t wait to meet some of our amazing special guests, one of whom will be a real life goddess. That’s right, a goddess. The 8-year-old girl is considered to be the incarnation of the Hindu goddess Kali, and she’s going to be gracing us with her presence in support of the World Premiere of LIVING GODDESS.

SILVERDOCS is especially honored to have Academy Award-winning director Jonathan Demme with us this year. We are celebrating his body of documentary work at our Guggenheim Symposium, and he’s presenting the theatrical World Premiere of his latest documentary NEW HOME MOVIES FROM THE LOWER 9TH WARD.

I can’t forget to mention that the awe-inspiring Reverend Billy from WHAT WOULD JESUS BUY? (check out his TODAY show interview), the precision jump ropers from DOUBLETIME and the dysfunctional husband and wife duo from FRANK AND CINDY will all be at SILVERDOCS in their uninhibited glory.

If you haven’t committed to coming to DC for SILVERDOCS, there is still time. It’s a hop, skip, jump or Chinatown bus away from Manhattan…
