Membety...as well as Le Franc a short film produced by the same
director.California Newsreel distributes these titles. They are out of
San Francisco. As a programmer/curater at UW Milwaukee they are a
significant resource for me...Their number is (415)621-6196. and they are
subscribers to this conference.
