SKINHEAD CROSS CULTURE has been entered in the Maverick Movie Awards and 12 international indie film and video festivals, including London, Glasgow, Amsterdam, Strasbourg, Las Vegas and New York. The purpose of entering these festivals has less to do with possible awards and recognition and more to do with increased awareness and better distribution. Like all documentaries, getting your message across and connecting with your audience are of paramount importance. Whether your doc is applauded or panned is of little significance in the grand scheme of things (but critical acclaim certainly couldn't hurt). What is ultimately important is what people walk away with. Let's hope the powers that be don't rush to judgement by the title alone! Skinheads deserve better than that.

UPDATE 4/27/10:
SCC is named an "Official Finalist" in the 2010 Las Vegas International Film Festival! This is an award category, not a nomination. This accolade along with the Maverick nominations will now appear on the cover of all future DVDs - including the European edition from Sunny Bastards, which hits the streets June 11, 2010.

UPDATE 12/25/09:
SCC receives 4 nominations in the Maverick Movie Awards, including Best Chronicle (Documentary), Best Soundtrack and Best Performance (by two live bands). Stay tuned here for more announcements on future festivals.
