Estonian Public Broadcasting (ERR) bought the television rights for Petropolis.  Their license begins in February 2010.

The Franco-German TV network ARTE will be the first to air Petropolis on Sunday, December 6th at midnight (that’s 0:00 hrs between Sunday night and Monday morning).  The broadcast is also available in Belgium, Austria, the Netherlands and Switzerland via cable, and will be re-aired on December 19th at 10:15 am.

Great news: I’m happy to announce that Mongrel Media Inc. will handle the Canadian distribution of Petropolis.  In fact, they’re working on a theatrical and DVD release as I write!

Stay tuned for more information, new artwork and release dates.

P.S. A late addition to the festival roster was the Oslo International Film Festival in Norway.  We’ve now premiered in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Italy, Norway and Switzerland!
