Hi Jessica, Haven’t seen anything on “Virunga,” but Passion River is selling the Netflix doc “Print the Legend” on the market competition between manufacturers of 3D printers.

The Netflix model has been to only allow docs they buy to show in NY & LA to make them Academy qualified and then refuse all other requests from theaters to colleges. A lot of venues really wanted to show the Nina Simone doc and others but were blown off. I am not even sure if Netflix ever releases their docs on DVD/blu ray Anyone know if you can legally buy a copy of VIRUNGA?

Unfortunately the distributor declined our request. I just watched the trailer and it’s fantastic looking, but that is making it that much harder for me to think of an alternative, similarly themed film that we could use in its place. Does anyone on this list have suggestions? Thanks! -lisa H.
