MARKETING and DISTRIBUTION
The aspects of this film are far-reaching and will appeal to a wide audience. Although, at its core, this a biographical account of Hal Gould and his accomplishments relative to fine art photography, it is very much a human interest story brimming with the message that life is what you make it and you never reach an age where you cease having hopes, dreams, and aspirations for the future, hence the tag line: Think life ends at 91? Think again…
The film will be submitted to film festivals for consideration as well as to other media outlets as a means of reaching the widest audience possible.
